- Abstract: Addressing workforce shortages within the Quantum Information Science and
Engineering (QISE) community requires attracting and retaining students from
diverse backgrounds early on in their undergraduate education. Here, we
describe a course we developed called Hello Quantum World! that introduces a
broad range of fundamental quantum information and computation concepts in a
rigorous way but without requiring any knowledge of mathematics beyond
high-school algebra nor any prior knowledge of quantum mechanics. Some of the
topics covered include superposition, entanglement, quantum gates,
teleportation, quantum algorithms, and quantum error correction. The course is
designed for first-year undergraduate students, both those pursuing a degree in
QISE and those who are seeking to be `quantum-aware'.
