INST 349: Quantum Computing for Information Science

Quantum computing will have implications for sensing (creating a near era of big data), for computing (even prior to mass commercialization), for networking (even if limited), and cryptography (foundational to cybersecurity). In this course we address the question, what quantum concepts and skills will information science students need to be successful in their careers?

Prereq: INST 346, basic probability and statistics.
