Curious about how quantum computers work and how you can start programming one? This full-day workshop takes you on a journey from the fundamental principles of quantum science to writing and running real quantum algorithms on IBM’s quantum hardware.
Attendees are welcome to join the morning session, the afternoon session, or stay for the full day experience.
Morning session – Foundations & Refresher
This day begins with an overview of the core concepts underpinning聽聽quantum computing.
- Explore the quantum materials and physical systems used to build real quantum processors
- Learn how quantum information is stored and manipulated using qubits
- Get hands-on with basic quantum gates and circults
Afternoon session – Deeper Dive into Quantum Computing with Qiskit
In the second part of the workshop, we will shift into a deeper, more technical exploration of quantum algorithms.
- Deeper dive into quantum algorithms
- Write, simulate and execute multi-step quantum algorithms using Qiskit
- Run your programs on actual IBM quantum computers
- Guided coding exercises will walk participants through each algorithm step-by-step, with time for experimentation and discussion
No prior quantum computing experience is required, 聽just your curiosity and a willingness to dive in. Designed for students across STEM disciplines.
