To celebrate the World Quantum Day on April 14th, the University of Cantabria  will participate in the 1st Pilot sesion of the International Quantum Computer Masterclasses outreach event focused on raising awareness of the transformative power of quantum computing and promoting opportunities in this technological field among young students.

Participants will have the chance to experience firsthand the world of quantum computing and use a Quantum Computer accessed in real-time, provided by Galician Supuercomputing Center and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, and shared their results with other centers ( CSUC-BSC Barcelona, NASERTIC Navarra, COMPUTAEX-CENITS, CESGA Galicia, UAM, IST-Lisbon, U. Warsow Poland)

We have organized an in person morning session from 10:00 to 13:30 (CEST) open to college or undergraduate students, consisting of:

  • Talks by researchers from different centers explaining the fundamentals and methods of fundamental quantum computing research to a group of students.

  • A practical case allowing participants to experience solving a problem by creating a quantum circuit.

  • To conclude the session, a simultaneous session is organized among several international centers (via video conference) where students can discuss their results in a coordinated manner.

 

*There is a limited number of attendees to participate; please request your registration at the top in the Registration section.
