Quantum Information at UMD
Quantum information research at UMD is centered here in QuICS and at the Joint Quantum Institute, the Quantum Technology Center, and the NSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation.
Workshop on Quantum Machine Learning 2018
The Workshop on Quantum Machine Learning was a five-day workshop at the University of Maryland that aimed to foster interactions of experts from math, physics, and computer science for this interdisciplinary topic. The Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Sciences (QuICS) hosted this workshop September 24 to September 28, 2018.

Workshop on the Frontiers of Quantum Information and Computer Science
The Workshop on the Frontiers of Quantum Information and Computer Science was a five-day workshop at the University of Maryland that brought together leading experts from around the world to share and discuss recent advances at the frontiers of quantum information and computer science.
What Is Quantum Information Science?
For hundreds of years, our understanding of the properties of matter and energy were based on mathematical equations formulated by Newton, Gauss, Maxwell and others by observing nature. These laws provide a useful model of motion, force, heat, electricity, and magnetism, and enabled us to build engines, power generators, computers, and communication devices.
