Quantum computing
Course
FCC155
Master’s level
7.5 credits (ECTS)
About
During the course, you will learn more about:
- Important quantum algorithms such as Quantum Fourier transform, Phase estimation, and Shor's algorithm.
- Variational quantum algorithms that utilise an interplay between classical and quantum computers, such as the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE), and the Quantum Approximate Optimisation algorithms (QAOA), among others.
- The intersection of quantum computing and machine learning.
The course will also give the students practical experience of programming a quantum computer.
