Join the Quantum Computing Club and Case Hacker Society for a hackathon on April 22 at Case Western Reserve University. Learn to program quantum computers through challenges and projects, and win prizes sponsored by Red Bull and Amazon.
Are you interested in quantum computing and want to learn how to program quantum computers? Then join the Quantum Computing Club and Case Hacker Society for a hackathon on April 22 at Case Western Reserve University. The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Tinkham Veale University Center, Ballroom A.
Red Bull is sponsoring this event and will provide free drinks. There will also be free food and prizes for participants. The hackathon will have two options for participation:
The first option is to complete the provided tutorial challenges to learn the basics of coding programs on quantum computers. Assistance will be available. Anyone who either completes these challenges or shows up and attempts them for at least an hour will earn a free Mitchell’s Ice Cream scoop coupon.
The second option is a traditional hackathon challenge that will be released at the start of the event. Students can participate in teams and the code will be due Sunday night. The winning team will win $100 worth of Amazon gift cards to be split among the team members.
This is a great opportunity for students to learn about quantum computing and its potential applications. Quantum computing is the future, and the country that takes the lead in quantum information systems will have technological and economic advantages over other the rest of the world for the next half century. We need more events like this to encourage and support students in this field. Register for the event on CampusGroups and don't miss this chance to be a part of the quantum computing revolution!
