Our learning opportunities are tailored to two audiences: Computer scientists and broad audiences such as parents, teachers, and high school students.

broad audiences

We have several resources for broad audiences.

  • Curated introductory resources, categorized by concept, with a few of our own thrown in.

  • EdX introductory course for learners with only algebra and elementary trigonometry backgrounds. Going live July 2021.

  • EdX intermediate course for learners who have taken the introductory course and have some elementary programming background and confidence in their mathematical skills. Going live July 2021.

computer science researchers

To help computer science researchers transition into quantum computing researchers, we are developing open-source tools to allow them to make research contributions quickly as well as creating and delivering tutorial materials to build the knowledge necessary to understand quantum computation, the next set of compelling research problems, and how computer scientists can contribute. 

Educational resources

We have created several resources for computer science researchers who want to learn about quantum computing. 

  • Our Nature paper that gives an overview of the compelling problems in quantum computing and their relationship to computer science systems research.

  • Quantum Computer Systems: Research for Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum Computers, an introduction to quantum computing specifically tailored to computer scientists who are not as familiar with the theoretical concepts or physics perspective. The book also focuses on computer systems challenges such as physics-aware circuit optimization, mapping, and scheduling on noisy hardware.

  • EdX Course on quantum systems (e.g. architecture and compilers) will go live in August

Check here for additional resources in the future.

Learning events

We are reaching out to researchers through prominent talks and tutorials.
