Overview

The Quantum Computing Applications course is a 8 weeks immersive program that will bring you a clear understanding of the opportunities of quantum technology for science, business and society.

Quantum Computing is a nascent technology that has explored in the previous years. It has the potential of disrupting major industries such as finance, logistics, pharma, agrotech and manufacturing among others.

During this course, you will discover the disruptive power of quantum computing, how to implement this technology and how to develop quantum computing applications.

Also, on a practical side, you will work on cases and applications on different sectors.

The Quantum Computing Applications course will also allow you to discover what are the key Quantum trends and to learn from international perspectives and case studies.

Apply fresh skills on your own workplace

This program will help you to develop practical skills ready to apply on your own workplace.

You will get a deep knowledge of:

  • How quantum computing works, the types of devices and how to interact with them.
  • The basic algorithms and building blocks and create circuits and solvers for some of the main use cases.
  • You will understand the science, interact with researchers and vendors and you will create your own quantum solutions.

This program will enable you to unlock the power of Quantum Computing by the hand of international leaders and program mates living an immersive tech experience in Barcelona or remotly.

At the end of this BTS Quantum Computing Lab you will get a productive outcome by developing a Quantum Computing roadmap aligned with the technology goals of your company.
