On April 14, Quantum Spain will celebrate World Quantum Day by hosting a special series of master classes taking place simultaneously in seven cities across Spain.
This initiative will bring together several Quantum Spain centers for a coordinated event designed to introduce students to the possibilities of quantum computing and to spark interest in this rapidly evolving field. The day will conclude with a joint session connecting all participating locations.
What to Expect
Participants will have the opportunity to explore quantum computing first-hand and run experiments on a quantum computer accessed in real time, provided by the Galician Supercomputing Center (CESGA) and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC-CNS).
Each session will include:
- Introductory talks by researchers from participating centers covering the principles of quantum computing and some of its current applications.
- A guided tour of the host institution.
- A hands-on workshop where participants will solve a problem by building and running a quantum circuit.
- At the end of the day, all locations will connect via videoconference for a joint session where students will present and discuss their results together.
