Quantum Technologies for Decision Makers (edX)

Quantum technology is all around yet many of us can readily be confused by the science, let alone the trajectories to identifying commercial opportunities. In such a context, making strategic decisions when the science and engineering are shifting presents many innovation dilemmas. Our interest lies in exploring enough of the science to boost our understanding so that we can make informed decisions to allocate resources that create and harness emerging opportunities.

Introduction to Quantum Information (Coursera)

The course provides an introduction to quantum information at a beginning graduate level. It focuses on the fundamental understanding of how information is processed with quantum systems and how the quantum properties apply to computing and communication tasks. The course begins by presenting quantum theory as the framework of information processing. Quantum systems are introduced with single and two qubits. Axioms of quantum theory such as states, dynamics, and measurements are explained as preparation, evolution, and readout of qubits. Quantum computing and quantum communication are explained.
