- Abstract: Quantum Information Technologies and a Practical Module is a new course we
launch at Shanghai Jiao Tong University targeting at the undergraduate students
who major in a variety of engineering disciplines. We develop a holistic
curriculum for quantum computing covering the quantum hardware, quantum
algorithms and applications. The quantum computing approaches include the
universal digital quantum computing, analog quantum computing and the hybrid
quantum-classical variational quantum computing that is tailored to the noisy
intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) technologies nowadays. Besides, we set a
practical module to bring student closer to the real industry needs. The
students would form a team of three to use any quantum approach to solve a
problem in fields like optimization, finance, machine learning, chemistry and
biology. Further, this course is selected into the Jiao Tong Global Virtual
Classroom Initiative, so that it is open to global students in Association of
Pacific Rim Universities at the same time with the offline students, in a
specifically updated classroom. The efforts in curriculum development,
practical module setting and blended learning make this course a good case
study for education on quantum sciences and technologies.
