3 credits · College of Engineering catalogue

Advisory Prerequisite: None . Enforced Prerequisite: [(MATH 214 or EECS 245) and (EECS 301 or 203)] or Graduate Standing. Minimum grade requirement of “C” for enforced prerequisite. (3 credits) Introduces quantum mechanics using concepts such as superposition, evolution, entanglement, and measurement. Covers quantum circuits and explores protocols such as teleportation, super-dense coding, and algorithms such as Grover’s, Shor’s and quantum Fourier transform. Students will explore quantum noise models, quantum error-correcting codes, and decoding algorithms through programming assignments and projects.
