Teaching
LTAT.04.021 Introduction to Quantum Information ("IQI")
- Spring term
- IQI introduces the quantum information concepts (qubits etc) with minimal math — but fully rigorous.
- Instructor: Theis
LTFY.03.013 Fundamentals of Quantum Computing ("FunQ")
- Fall term
- FunQ is a 1st year introduction based on complex numbers & matrices, quantum circuits, and Python.
- Instructor: Palge
LTAT.04.004 Quantum Seminar
- Meets every Wednesday, semester or not.
Micro-degree Quantum Computing
- Learn quantum computing with only high-school math background
- Comprises IQI (spring) + FunQ (fall)
- Started in spring 2026
- Inquiries: Program manager Veiko Palge
