Camp Overview

Be one of the first middle school students in the world to develop skills in the cutting-edge tech field of quantum computing!

So you think teleportation is just science fiction? Not in the world of quantum computing. In this camp, students will dive into sci-fi concepts that are turning into reality with the emergence of quantum computers. Learn what a qubit is, how one item can be in two places at the same time with superposition and the bizarre phenomena of entanglement.

What Students Learn

  • Key concepts such as qubits, superposition and teleportation
  • How quantum computing relates to cryptography, space travel, AI and other fields
  • Construct circuits from quantum gates
  • Create a quantum circuit that entangles two qubits

Logistics

Tech Requirements

Summer camps are instructed live in English virtually during the EST time zone over the dates listed. Students will require access to reliable broadband on a device that is audio and video capable, ideally from a quiet and distraction-free environment. Devices may include computers, laptops, notebooks, and Chromebooks. Students will need to access Zoom and Google Co-lab from their devices to participate fully in the course.

Scholarships

Limited scholarship funds are available to cover the cost of tuition for eligible, US-based students that exemplify need and alignment with The Coding School’s mission. Students from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds in STEM are encouraged to apply. The deadline to apply for a scholarship is May 31. Scholarship awardees will be notified by June 7.

Completing an application does not guarantee that an applicant will receive a scholarship. Scholarships will be distributed using a lottery system on a rolling basis until the application closes on May 31. Applicants will be notified by June 7 at the latest of one of three possible outcomes: scholarship recipient, waitlist, or not selected for a scholarship. If selected, recipients will have 72-hours to accept their spot. If waitlisted, applicants will be contacted if a recipient does not accept their scholarship, or if additional scholarships are funded.
