QBronze101 | Worldwide (November 2022)

We are pleased to announce the worldwide quantum programming workshop | QBronze101

QBronze101 | Quantum Computing and Programming Workshop, Online, November 19-20 & 26-27, 2022

We are pleased to announce the worldwide QBronze quantum programming workshop. This workshop was organized by the cousins of QTurkey, QPakistan, QIran, QIndia, is a collective workshop specific to the geography where the cousins are the majority. Join us for the introductory workshop “Quantum Computing and Programming” and learn the basics of quantum computing and how to write simple quantum programs. Our workshops are free and fully-online.

We are inviting high school students, university and graduate students, researchers, professors, and industrial people from the world. During the quantum programming workshop, we will use the introductory tutorial Bronze-Qiskit by QWorld. We will use Discord to communicate with each other and conduct the workshop by Zoom meetings. Mentor support by QCousins will be provided in their mother tongue, material and lecture sessions are in English.

We will share homework via QWorld Canvas (five homework assignments, in total 100 pts). The participants who complete them all successfully (at least 50% for each) with at least 70 pts in total, will earn their diplomas!

Participants will be watching the lecture videos and completing the tasks on their own. Mentor support will be provided for participants to ask their questions and share their progress with mentors. The workshop will be held over 4 days, with a total of 20 hours of training.

December 4
Homework 4 for deadline (Deadline GMT PM 11:59)

The participants are expected to work individually at least 16 hours to complete the following sections of Bronze-Qiskit: basics of classical systems, basics of quantum systems, basic quantum operators, quantum correlation and quantum protocols, and quantum search algorithm.

The tutorial is a collection of Jupyter notebooks, and each notebook has a recorded lecture. We use python to solve the tasks and Qiskit library to code quantum programs. The participants should know at least one programming language, and they should make themselves familiar with Python before the workshop if they do not know Python. We will share the installation instructions and a few notebooks on basics of mathematics and participants should review them before the workshop starts.
