IBM’s Quantum Computer Programming: Hands-On Workshop (Asynchronous)
Practical Quantum Programming
100% online course
This course offers a comprehensive introduction to quantum computing, starting from the basics and progressing to advanced algorithm design and implementation. No prior knowledge of quantum computing or quantum physics is required, though familiarity with matrix-vector multiplication is expected. The course will guide you through the mathematics of quantum computing, the creation of quantum gates and circuits, and the implementation of the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) on IBM's quantum computers. Cost $24.00. A certificate is earned and awarded. Learn More

More Undergraduate and Graduate Student Opportunities
____________________________________
The Bachelor of Science degree program prepares students for career opportunities in the mathematical sciences, including those that require further study at the graduate level.
The B.S. degree requires a minimum GPA of 2.5.
Any math course taken at another institution must be completed with a grade of at least a "C-" to be considered part of this program.
All Mathematical Sciences majors are required to meet with their advisor at least once a year.
Students seeking this degree must complete the following courses:

* The following courses may not be used as upper-division math electives: STA 3163, STA 3173, STA 3949, MAT 3949, MAP 4945, or STA 4821.
* Because of overlap in course content, Mathematics majors may receive credit for at most one course in each of the following pairs:
MAP 2302 or MAP 3305
MAP 4303 or MAP 4306
STA 4443 or STA 4032
* As with all degree programs, the authoritative source for the degree requirements is the University Catalog that was in effect for the academic year in which the student entered the University. The information on this page does not supersede the Catalog.
