Quant-UNAM Project
An online course on quantum computation
About
This course explores the mathematical foundations of Quantum Computing. It consists of a series of videos that enable the implementation of the ‘flipped classroom’ educational model, in which classroom time can be primarily devoted to the active discussion of concepts presented in the videos, as well as discussing exercises and applications.
This is a collaboration with the Faculty of Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.
