Hi Scott. Thank you for doing this AMA.

In your opinion what are some good universities across the world to look into if one wants to do graduate or post-graduate level research in quantum computing?

I already answered that in another comment, but briefly: Waterloo/Perimeter, Caltech, MIT, Berkeley, U. Maryland, Singapore, Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol, CWI Amsterdam, Hebrew University, Tsinghua, UTS Sydney, McGill/Montreal, LRI Paris, and don't count out UT Austin -- we're planning to expand a lot! And many, many other places have at least one or two people in the field.

How about Germany? It seems people doing optics here like to connect their research to quantum computing.

Yes, there's some great stuff going on at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics outside Munich.

Also the groups in Innsbruck and Vienna in Austria.
