This virtual program is for quantum-curious learners of all ages, genders and nationalities from all over the world!
Most participants will be undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral researchers from STEM+E.
Basic python programming skills, basic linear algebra (vectors, matrices) and high-school physics.
Yes, it is possible for advanced participants to enroll only in the hackathon (Aug 8-25) and skip the Womanium Quantum Training (July 10 - Aug 5). We will ask for proof of previous experience (Git repository, university course work, QWorld Summer School, QubitxQubit, etc). Of course, you are welcome to attend lectures of your interest before joining the hackathon!
There are three enrollment categories:
You must apply to be a Womanium Quantum Computing Scholar and commit to active and full participation from beginning-to-end of the program and submitting a short evaluation at the end.
Applications will be made open for those who enroll in the program in June.
Undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral researchers who don’t apply for a Womanium Quantum Computing Scholarship (A)
For Industry professionals and Executives
