Professor Jingbo Wang is the Founder and current Director of the Research Centre for Quantum Information, Simulation and Algorithm, which fosters collaboration and entrepreneurship, bringing together academics and industrial partners to develop innovative quantum solutions to tackle otherwise intractable problems and complex phenomena. Widely published in prestigious journals like Nature Photonics, Science Advances, Physical Review Letters, Quantum Science and Technology, her contributions have significantly advanced quantum computing and laid the foundation for future breakthroughs.   

Professor Wang has also been instrumental in shaping education in quantum science and technology. She designed and implemented a comprehensive suite of quantum computing courses spanning undergraduate, master’s, and PhD programs, ensuring students gain both theoretical foundations and practical expertise. Her vision and initiatives have significantly advanced the integration of quantum computing into mainstream curricula, positioning the university as a leader in quantum computing education and innovation. During her tenure as Head of Physics (2017–2023), Professor Wang also spearheaded the development and successful implementation of the Frontier Physics Combined Bachelor and Masters Program, a pioneering initiative designed to attract and nurture top-tier students in cutting-edge physics. This program integrates rigorous coursework with research opportunities, providing a seamless pathway from undergraduate to postgraduate study. Under her leadership, the program has become a benchmark for innovative curriculum design, significantly enhancing student engagement, retention, and preparation for careers in frontier scientific research and industry.

In addition, Professor Wang is the WA node lead of the Australian Centre for Quantum Growth, co-founding director of the Australian Quantum Software Network Limited, director of the UWA-Pawsey Educational Quantum Computing Centre, and a member of the College of Experts for the Australian Research Council. She is the co-director of Quantum Girls, a government-funded initiative aimed at encouraging girls and young women to pursue careers in quantum science, specifically in quantum computing.
