Students will investigate quantum science concepts and perform quantum experiments, simulations, and computing activities, while also learning about career pathways in quantum technologies.
Some basic quantum principles that will be explored include wave-particle duality, interference and superposition, polarization, entanglement, and measurement. Students will engage in a variety of hands-on activities including IBM Quantum Composer simulations to explore quantum bits, quantum gates, and quantum circuits. Students will interact with physics professors, graduate students, and undergraduate students to learn about academic pathways and careers related to quantum physics and computing.

The goal of this one-week program is to introduce students to quantum information science principles and basic quantum computing. No background in programming, physics, or advanced mathematics is necessary.
