Overview
What you will study
Participants of the the Introduction to Quantum Computing course offered by Singapore University of Technology and Design will learn how quantum effects can be used to design logic gates. Participants will gain an appreciation of how quantum differs from classic gates and how they can be used in quantum algorithms. They will have a firsthand experience in implementing quantum logic gates (using IBM Q circuit composer and Qiskit).
We will discuss how these quantum algorithms differ from those supported by classical computers. We will discover how these techniques can be applied in optimisation problems, and cryptography domains.
By the end of this course, participants should be able to / can expect to:
- Have a basic understanding of quantum physics and how they are used in quantum computing.
- Learn how a quantum gate differ from classical logic gate.
- Learn about various quantum gates (E.g. Hadamard, Pauli gates, Controlled NOT etc).
- Compose simple scores on IBM Q and observe their computational results.
- Appreciate how these gates can lead to the development of quantum algorithms.
- Apply quantum algorithms to solve optimisation and cryptographic problems.

Student insurance
Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:
- Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
- Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
- Liability
- Home contents and baggage
- Accidents
- Legal aid
