Introduction to Quantum Information Science and Engineering
Description:
The Introduction to Quantum Information Science and Engineering course provides a fundamental understanding of quantum mechanics terminology and key principles. The program is designed for participants with little to no prior knowledge of quantum mechanics or quantum computing. The course goals are to demystify quantum concepts such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum algorithms. Through this work, participants will begin to be able to identify potential applications for quantum computing and discuss the challenges and limitations associated with quantum computing. This course is best suited to be delivered in a corporate environment to a team of individuals from one organization who are working together to identify potential applications of quantum computing to their organization’s business model. To be effective in this approach, some minor customizations to tailor the course to each individual business are highly recommended. The course includes the book “Quantum Physics: What Everyone Needs to Know,” by Michael Raymer.
Objectives:
- Understand key terminology used in the field of quantum computing.
- Articulate the differences between quantum and classical computing applications.
- Discuss a variety of applications of quantum information science.
- Identify challenges and limitations of quantum computing.
- Discuss quantum computing hardware and software requirements.
Course Details:
- 18-hours of instruction (in person or virtual).
- Schedule can be customized to delivery needs of organization.
- Pricing is available on request.
