RQS Career Connections: Quantum Circuits, Inc.
James Teoh will speak about his experience as a Quantum Engineer at Quantum Circuits Inc., and what it is like to be a physicist in quantum industry in the field of superconducting circuits.
RQS Career Connections: Quantinuum Research into near-term applications of quantum computers
Quantinuum is pursuing the development of trapped ion quantum computers based around the so-called “QCCD architecture” pioneered at NIST. This hardware design confers many advantages, including very high gate fidelities, low cross-talk mid-circuit measurement, and flexible qubit connectivity, but it also poses many design challenges that Quantinuum is working to overcome. I will give an overview of what it’s like to work at Quantinuum, what types of things people here are working on, and I will discuss a variety of opportunities in simulating many-body quantum systems that the s
RQS Career Connections: The Quantum Ethics Project
As a graduate student researching quantum machine learning at the Institute for Quantum Computing, Joan wanted to better understand the ethical implications of her work. Drawing from conversations on AI ethics and taking a critical perspective on many of the promises being made in the quantum computing space, Joan founded the Quantum Ethics Project to build community around ensuring quantum technology benefits everyone and harms no one. In this seminar Joan will give an introduction to quantum ethics and share her perspective on her career journey into this field.
Graduate Internships in Quantum
RQS presents a panel discussion with RQS students who have recently interned at a company. They will discuss:
- What they did during their internship
- How they learned about/applied for the internship
- Things they wish they had known in advance and advice for other applicants
- How RQS and/or an RQS university could make the internship process easier and better
They will also answer your questions if you have an interest in a future internship.
