Understanding Quantum Information & Computation Series Trailer

The goal for this series is simple: to create a university level quantum course and to make it available worldwide, while explaining how quantum information and computation actually works, at a detailed mathematical level.

There's no expectation you already know anything about quantum computing or quantum information, or have a background in quantum mechanics or physics. But you will want to be comfortable with linear algebra, complex numbers, and basic mathematical concepts.

Understanding Quantum Information and Computation is meant for anyone who wants to learn about quantum computing from a computer scientists perspective, and will begin by covering the basics of quantum information in Unit 1. 

In unit 2, we will dive into Quantum Algorithms, Unit 3 we'll dive deeper into the mathematics of quantum information, and Unit 4 will explore how to understand and mitigate noise. 

My name is John Watrous, and I hope you'll join me for Lesson 1 of Understanding Quantum Information and Computation.

Dr. John Watrous is a really great teacher. Looking forward to this course!

[aaditiwar]

so grateful qiskit is doing so much to help us students learn!

Beautiful animations ! Just started learning more about quantum computation, so this is perfect timing.

This is a slap to the people who say they don't have enough resources to study. Great job.

It’s really incredible how the quantum fields have caught on so much attention in just the last several years or so.

Guys, what do you use to make such beautiful animations?

[hiteshnaval]

Astounding opportunity to propagate toward Quantum

[ChimeraZone]

Even if I don't take the course I'm glad people have more ways of accessing this information. The more people we can get to understand objective functional truths in how reality operates, the better.

November 1st 2022. Looking forwards to it. I'd like to understand *_"the square root of not"_* - I understand if I perform the SN operation twice in a row I get the Not operation, I want an example of when a single SN would be of any use to man or beast.

I watched some of the 2020 series but couldn't continue for some reason. I'm definitely gonna be on top of this one. The basics from the previous ones will help a lot since I faced a lot of challenges in learning it. Thank you for this. See you soon.

Will this be a certificate course we can complete in edx or Coursera?

[Miguel_Noether]

After this no more summer schools or 😓
