Launch, Certificate Program
Overview
In this boot camp, we will cover introductory sections from industry-standard texts. The material will cover basic quantum algorithms (Grover, Quantum Phase Estimation, Shor) and selected advanced topics (for example, Quantum State Preparation, Hamiltonian Simulation, Stabilizer/CCS codes).
There will be three ``mini-projects'' implementing both fundamental algorithms (for example, Grover's Search or Shor's algorithm) and current methods (for example, state-of-the-art quantum state preparation or error correction methods). You will have the option to select from a list of project ideas.
These will be announced every two weeks, starting on the second week, and you will have two weeks to submit your work.
The successful submission of these mini-projects is a requirement for the certificates of completion of the boot camp.
