Description
Quantum boom has brought quantum physics to everyday life, e.g., to movies or newspaper articles. But do Finnish university students with different majors notice it? Here, we explore their perceptions about the presence of quantum physics in their lives (past), its importance (present), and a possible interest to study it (future). We find that noticing the word “quantum” in their free time and considering quantum physics being relevant to society and everyday life is independent of study major. In addition, if study credits can be provided, students express interest in studying different topics related to QP.
