📢 Summer Quantum Camp Registration now open: Register Today!
Due to high demand, in addition to high school students and educators, we've opened the course to university students and members of the workforce.
Our goal is to make quantum computing education available to anyone who wants to learn. If you’d be unable to take the course without a scholarship, apply for one today. We’ll prioritize applicants with financial need or from a background that is traditionally underrepresented in STEM.
Quantum computing has the potential to change the world, and we
want to make sure you’re prepared. Taught by quantum researchers
at MIT and UC Berkeley, this award-winning course offers
students an accessible, yet challenging, introduction to the
field of quantum computing, covering topics on quantum
mechanics, quantum information and computation, and quantum
hardware. Through guest lectures and talks, students will also
have the chance to learn from quantum experts in industry and
academia, as well as join a global cohort of future quantum
leaders.
Students have the option of participating in the
first semester or two-semesters. Semester 1 will cover
the Fundamentals of Quantum Computing. Semester 2 will cover
Applications of Quantum Computing, going into Quantum Finance,
Quantum Chemistry, and more.

Whether you want to be a politician, public health researcher, or quantum engineer, everyone will need to have a foundational understanding of quantum computing. That’s why we’re committed to making the course as accessible as possible and do not require prior quantum or programming experience.
The course consists of three weekly components:
Lecture
Hands-on Lab
Homework
Additionally, office hours and homework review sessions, as well as guest talks and lab tours, will be held.
Upon completion of the course, students will be presented with a
certificate signed by

Our goal is to help students understand more about this fascinating field and be at the forefront of this technology, so they are prepared for the future of work and positioned in the most positive way possible for college and beyond.
This course is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and approved by the University of California A-G as a college preparatory course. Students from more than 150 high schools in the U.S. received credit last year for completing the course and you can too with your school's approval. To see if you can receive credit, please email us, and we will send more information.
With over 20,000 alumni of this course, we've developed the most accessible, comprehensive, and in-depth introductory course on quantum computing for high school students and above. By taking this course, students develop foundational skills in quantum mechanics, quantum information and computation, and quantum algorithms and protocols. Through these topics, students strengthen their physics, math, and computer science skills, and even will have a chance to code on a real quantum computer. At the end of the course, students will work on a capstone project to apply what they've learned in the course and delve deeper into a topic of their choosing.
Thanks to IBM Quantum, full and partial scholarships are available for all students with financial need and those from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds in STEM. High school students and early undergraduates will be prioritized.
We are grateful for the support of IBM Quantum who is helping ensure quantum education is accessible to all students—regardless of socioeconomic background.
September 2023 - April 2024
Students will attend a weekly lecture and lab each week
(many time options).
The only prerequisite is that students have taken a geometry class. No prior STEM experience or quantum knowledge is required or expected.
