Quantum Computing for the Faint of Heart

The quantum computing curriculum developed in the Freshman Research Initiative at The University of Texas at Austin caters to students who have not yet studied advanced math and science. We lower the barrier to entry by simplifying notation and teaching through application of the concepts, only covering math methods as they become necessary. Physical motivation and simulation connect with students, and embedded examples and practice problems help cement their understanding. Through learning to program in Python and completing creative technical projects, students gain valuable, transferable skills while exploring quantum information and computing.
