Quantum Camp

High school

Discover Quantum

Did you know Nebraska has a quantum research collaboration? (EQUATE is the project, funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation!) One of EQUATE’s scientists is leading a VIRTUAL camp that will introduce high school students to quantum topics. You’ll learn fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics including quantum superposition and quantum entanglement, then move on to quantum information science. The camp will cover algorithms for quantum computing and quantum teleportation, then the group will enter IBM’s Qiskit platform for hands-on activities to write codes and run quantum programs.
