To celebrate the World Quantum Day on April 14th, CESGA together with IGFAE-USC will organize the 1st Pilot session of the International Quantum Computing Masterclass: an outreach event designed to raise awareness among young students on the transformative power of quantum technologies in the field of information processing and computing .

Participants will have the chance to experience firsthand the world of quantum computing and use a Quantum Computer accessed in real-time, provided by Galician Supuercomputing Center and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, and shared their results with other centers ( CSUC-BSC Barcelona, NASERTIC Navarra, COMPUTAEX-CENITS, UC Universidad de Cantabria, UAM)

We have organized a morning session from 10:00 to 14:30 (CEST) open to college or undergraduate students, consisting of:

Talks by researchers from different centers explaining the fundamentals and methods of fundamental quantum computing research to a group of students.

A practical case allowing participants to experience solving a problem by creating a quantum circuit.

To conclude the session, a simultaneous session is organized among several international centers (via video conference) where students can discuss their results in a coordinated manner.
