Quantum Computing

(From High School, College to Anyone)

From June 22rd to September 21nd, 2024 (12 Weeks), Every Saturday, 10 - 11 AM CST,

Quantum Computing (From High School, College to Anyone)

Quantum Computing is a rapidly emerging technology that harnesses the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems too complex for classical computers. This course offers deeper insights into quantum computing and how to leverage quantum computational principles such as superposition, measurement, and entanglement by running experiments in Quantum Computing on a quantum computing simulator and a real quantum computer via IBM Quantum Experience systems.

Quantum computers can perform certain tasks exponentially faster than classical computers, especially when it comes to problems that involve searching large amounts of data or factoring large numbers. Companies are making new breakthroughs in quantum computing all the time, developing faster or more powerful devices, and they have the potential to transform our day-to-day lives.

SHARPEN YOUR AXE

Assignments: To augment your proficiency in Quantum Computing, you will be regularly challenged with various assignments like coding challenges, algorithmic puzzles, trick logical, analytical, and mathematical problems - designed to enable you to think creatively and outside the box.

Expect 4 levels of difficulty in these assignments:

  • Beginner: Exercises that test your understanding of the subject.
  • Intermediate: Exercises that add new and thought-provoking information to the subject.
  • Advanced: Exercises that are intended to challenge you.
  • Expert: Exercises that are extremely difficult in comparison with most others.

Real-world Projects: The projects are designed to ensure that you not only understand the theoretical concepts of Quantum Computing but also gain hands-on experience in applying those concepts to real-world scenarios. You’ll be required to collaborate as a team to attempt some projects while working as a Lone Wolf / individual contributor on others.

  • Two Cornerstone projects that will reinforce in you the strong foundational knowledge of Quantum Computing, leading to:
  • One Keystone projects will be more challenging, building on the knowledge you have gained through the Cornerstone projects, leading to:
  • One Capstone project, which will be the culmination of your learning experience in this course.

About the instructor:

Ashish KumarVivek Shangari
https://acehacker.com/whois/vivek
Vivek Shangari is highly skilled in the field of Artificial Intelligence, Quantum Computing, Computer Programming, and Robotics with a deep understanding of cutting-edge technologies and techniques, enabling the development of intelligent systems, quantum algorithms, and efficient software that looks nice and feels right.

Started taking things apart at 4, Began putting them back together at 8. Vivek is a Storyteller who tells tales in code. He thinks about programs and carries a piece of code in his head all the time. Vivek has a motto he lives by a mantra he conceived called “R.E.S.T” And no, it doesn’t involve taking daily naps or lounging on hammocks all day long, although that would be pretty awesome too. For Vivek, R.E.S.T stands for Research, Experiment, Study, and Teach. It’s his strategy for world domination that includes embracing constant learning, imparting knowledge, and spreading joy & laughter.
