Our Mission
Our mission is to foster a vibrant and collaborative community of quantum computing researchers, educators, and enthusiasts, both within our esteemed institution and the broader global community. We are committed to advancing the field of quantum computing through cutting-edge research, innovative education programs, and dynamic partnerships with industry leaders and fellow academic institutions.
Founders
QuCS was organized by Zhiding Liang from RPI and Hanrui Wang from UCLA.
We aim to build basic quantum knowledge for audiences without a quantum computing background but interested in the field. We also target introducing more advanced research topics by inviting experts in quantum computing.
