Can't import Qt for Python in Maya

I am trying to build a small UI in Maya with QT through Python.

When I use:

from Qt import QtCore

In the script editor, it throws the following error:

Error: ImportError: file line 2: No module named Qt #

I am just starting out to explore this subject. Does this mean Qt isn't installed ? Is it not a part of the default package of Maya 2018 and 2019 ?

Any pointers as to why this may happen will be really helpful.

Qt for Python is the name of the project but the package is PySide2 so you should use: `from PySide2 import QtCore` – eyllanesc Aug 11 '19 at 12:45
