 The first university course titled "Quantum Thermodynamics" was offered at [[Organization:Massachusetts Institute of Technology|MIT]] in the spring of 1971 by [[Biography:George N. Hatsopoulos|George Hatsopoulos]] and [[Biography:Elias Gyftopoulos|Elias Gyftopoulos]]. The course, numbered 2.47J, was a graduate-level offering.<ref>MIT Bulletin 1970-71.</ref>
