Dette to-dages kursus giver softwareudviklere og arkitekter en praktisk introduktion til kvanteteknologi og dens applikationer. Med et stærkt fokus på kvantecomputere, software og algoritmer, vil deltagerne få indsigt i det aktuelle stadie af teknologien, samt hvor feltet bevæger sig hen i forhold til praktiske forretningsløsninger.
Kurset kombinerer teoretiske oplæg med hands-on øvelser i kvantesimulatorer, hvor der arbejdes med konkrete use-cases. Du vil få en grundlæggende forståelse for lineær algebra, Python og kvantemekanik som fundament for at programmere kvantecomputere.
Hvad kan du forvente at få ud af kurset:
- Fundamental forståelse: Lær principperne bag kvanteteknologi (qubits, superposition og entanglement).
- Algoritmer i praksis: Indblik i bl.a. Shors og Grovers algoritmer samt Quantum Machine Learning.
- Hands-on erfaring: Arbejde med kvantesimulatorer og notebook-baserede øvelser.
- Netværk og økosystem: Oversigt over det danske kvante-økosystem og EU Quantum Act.
Format: Kurset strækker sig over to dage med fuldt program inkl. middag på dag 1. Undervisningen er en blanding af ekspert-oplæg og vejledte øvelser.
Målgruppe: Softwareudviklere med baggrund i matematik, fysik eller ingeniørvidenskab, som er nysgerrige på kvante-innovation.
Pris og tilmelding: Deltagergebyr er DKK 1.475, som inkluderer fuld forplejning (frokost, middag, kaffe/te). Overnatning er ikke inkluderet.
