Tri-University Quantum Boot Camp
Sponsored by Intel
Hosted at The University of Arizona | Tucson, Arizona
The Arizona Quantum Bootcamp returns for its third year, bringing together students, educators and researchers from across Arizona's growing quantum ecosystem. Jointly organized by Arizona's three public universities, this week-long program provides an essential introduction to quantum science and technology through lectures, talks, tutorials, and lab tours.
Designed for undergraduate students the bootcamp covers the foundations of quantum mechanics while introducing participants to modern applications in quantum computing, quantum sensing, quantum optics, quantum materials, and semiconductor technologies.
Organizers and Lecturers
- Christian Arenz (Arizona State University)
- Ryan Behunin (Northern Arizona University)
- Kyle Seyler (University of Arizona)
- Kanu Sinha (University of Arizona)
Program Overview
The bootcamp will introduce the students to the fundamental of quantum mechanics and give them a glimpse of research frontiers in quantum science and technology.
Teacher Workshop
Each afternoon, the bootcamp will host dedicated workshops for high-school educators focused on integrating quantum science concepts into classroom instruction. These sessions provide curriculum resources, demonstrations, and opportunities to connect with Arizona's growing quantum education community.
