We're looking for innovative high school partners who are
interested in being one of the first schools in the world to
offer a course in quantum computing.
Our partner schools provide their students with academic credit
for completing this first-of-its kind STEM course, and are able
to enroll their students for FREE. The course is online and
taught by Qubit by Qubit's instructors from leading
universities. Students will learn foundational quantum computing
skills, run code on a real quantum computer, and hear from
leading academic and industry experts.
Through two semesters of weekly lectures, lab sections, and
homework assignments, students will develop a foundational
understanding of quantum computing, including basic linear
algebra, quantum mechanics, quantum computation and
information, and quantum algorithms.
Students will spend the first half of the course developing
skills in math and Python. The second half of the course will
focus on coding quantum circuits and quantum algorithms,
leading to students coding on a real quantum computer.

Dr. Connie Hsueh
(she/her) is a Congressional Science Fellow with the American Institute of Physics. She completed her PhD in Applied Physics at Stanford in 2023 with a research focus on semiconductor physics and nanoscience. She also holds advanced degrees in Physics from Caltech (B.S.) and University of Cambridge (MPhil). Outside of quantum technology, she is interested in science policy, scientific ethics, traveling, and water polo.
Dr. Derrick Boone Jr.
(he/him) has a varied career journey to date including: military service, physics research, consulting, and work at a biotech startup. He holds degrees in Physics from MIT (B.S.), Johns Hopkins University (M.S.), and Stanford University (PhD). Today, he teaches mathematics full-time at an all-girls high school in California. He is excited to help train the next generation of technology leaders.
