The Illinois Quantum Computing Summer School will offer an immersive educational experience for learning the basic principles and current applications of quantum computing. The school is open to students, postdocs, and faculty, with the targeted audience being theoreticians who have some background in classical computing but little expertise in quantum computation. The curriculum is designed to provide a “ground-up” introduction to the subject.

Mark your calendars for the Tenth International School and Conference on Spintronics and Quantum Information Technology. Taking place in Chicago, Illinois from June 24 to June 28, 2019, SpintechX will highlight fundamental physical phenomena related to spin-dependent effects in condensed matter while also drawing attention to recent advances in the development of new spintronic materials, structures, and devices, including those related to quantum information science. The school will take place during the first half of the week to orient students and newcomers to this emerging field, followed by a conference aimed at stimulating progress in new materials, measurement, and theory of spintronic systems.
