Are you an economist, social scientist, engineer, architect, software developer or even a statistician?
Have you seen vectors, matrices or calculus in College? Even if it was years ago?
Today the Pasayten Institute is announcing our new, free course: Quantum Mechanics for the Working Professional.
This course is your chance to learn Quantum Mechanics in an informal setting, one idea at a time.
Why learn quantum mechanics?
Unbelievable it as it sounds, Quantum Computing is now available on the cloud. While nascent, standard and thermal quantum computing-as-a service programs are now provided by organizations like
Amazon Bracket and
D-Wave Systems. This allows individuals and organizations to access quantum computing resources which may well be able to solve previously intractable or laborious problems.
What kind of problems?
Of course, things are still young and Quantum Computing is not indistinguishable from magic. Yet.
In February of this year, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science foundation
released a strategic plan to
train up the next generation of Americans on Quantum Information Science and Technology or QIST. In K-12 education. In College education. QIST is coming, and its not just for Science Majors anymore.
Now is a great time to get familiar with the basic concepts in Quantum Mechanics.
If you’re curious and comfortable with learning some mathematics, this course is for you. If you’re keen on learning quantum mechanics. Welcome aboard!
This course will include:
