Dear collaborators,

The Jülich Supercomputing Center and the Forschungszentrum Jülich are thrilled to announce the launch of this year’s edition of JUNIQ Spring School on Quantum Computing!

The school emphasizes hands-on experience in developing and implementing algorithms on both gate-based devices and quantum annealers. Attendees will use the cloud-programming platform of the Jülich UNified Infrastructure for Quantum computing (JUNIQ) to access quantum devices located at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre. The hands-on sessions will be complemented by several lectures that cover the fundamental concepts of gate-based and annealing systems, the design and implementation of use cases, and overarching insights into the field, all delivered by renowned experts. Additionally, the spring school will feature a poster session where participants can present their research activities to their peers.

Key Highlights:

Dates: March 31 to April 04, 2025 Location: On-site (Forschungszentrum Jülich, JSC, Building 16.4, Room 301) Topics Covered: Introduction to Gate-Based Quantum Computing, Introduction to Quantum Annealing, Introduction to Quantum Simulation, Formulating QUBO Problems and Ising Hamiltonians, Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm, Emulation of Quantum Systems, Classical vs Quantum Optimization, Error Correction. Speakers: Prof. Kristel Michielsen (FZJ/RWTH Aachen), Prof. Ioan Pop (KIT), Dr. Dennis Willsch (FZJ/RWTH Aachen), and many others. Registration Deadline: March 1st

For more details and to register, please visit our website (https://go.fzj.de/jsc-springschool). <https://www.fz-juelich.de/en/ias/jsc/systems/quantum-computing/juniq-facility/training/spring_school_2025>

We would greatly appreciate it if you could share this information with anyone who might be interested. The school is tailored for early-year PhD students in the field of quantum computing; however, participation is open to all interested individuals.
