Mode of workshop: Offline

About the workshop:

Quantum computing is an emerging technology field with applications in several topics like quantum cryptography, quantum algorithms, machine learning and data science. Recently MCQuICC has been approved as the quantum hub by IBM and hence we will have exclusive access to their premium quantum computing hardware. This access and the knowledge to use it is very much sought after by several industries and agencies. From MCQuICC we would like to run this training program to introduce and familiarize the quantum computing fundamentals to a wider group of professionals. The program is designed to be a one-week program from 17th October to 21st October. A typical day will consist of two distinct sessions namely a lecture session in the morning which will be complemented by a lab session in the afternoon. In the lecture session academic experts on quantum information and computing from IITM will give lectures and in the lab session we will provide hands-on training in using the quantum computer.
