Course Contents/Objectives/Teaching Method/Intended Learning Outcome

This course will cover the basics of quantum information and the principles of computation utilizing quantum mechanics, the most fundamental physical laws. Students will learn about quantum algorithms that can be used to accelerate factoring and simulating quantum many-body systems. The course will also cover the mechanisms behind these algorithms, as well as recent developments in noisy intermediate-scale quantum computing applications. Through this course, students will gain an understanding of the mathematical foundations of quantum states, quantum operations, and measurements, and will develop a deep understanding of the structure and performance of quantum computers and quantum algorithms.
