Two new Classes on QUANTUM COMPUTING were developed at UC during the Academic Year 2003-2004.
These classes are being taught again during this academic year.
The first class (ECES 622) will meet on Tuesday and Thursday in BA 645 from 11.00a.m-12.15p.m.
The follow-up class to be taught in the Spring quarter (ECES 753: Special Topics in Quantum Computing).

Over the last two years, several faculty members in the ECECS Dept. and Physics Department at UC have been involved in a joint venture to train undergraduate and graduate students at UC in the rapidly burgeoning field of Quantum Computing. The list of the faculty involved and a link to their website is given below. Two classes on quantum computing are now being offered at UC including ECES 622 (Introduction to Quantum Computing, also listed as PHYS-622) in the Winter quarter followed by ECES 753 (Special Topics in Quantum Computing, also listed as PHYS-623). Given below are links to several websites dealing with the topics of Quantum Computing. If you have any comments about this website, feel free to send an email to marc.cahay@uc.edu
