The Quantum Computing Summer School is an immersive 10-week curriculum that includes tutorials from world-leading experts in quantum computation as well as one-on-one mentoring from Los Alamos National Laboratory staff scientists who are conducting cutting-edge quantum computing research. Summer school fellowship recipients will be exposed to the theoretical foundations of quantum computation and will become skilled at programming commercial quantum computers, such as those developed by IBM, Quera, IonQ, Quantinuum, DWave. All students (undergraduate and graduate) are encouraged to apply.
In the first 2 weeks, students will attend lectures given by world-leading experts – from academia, industry and national laboratories – in quantum computing research. Following the 2-week lecture period, each student will work on a research project in quantum computing for the remaining 8 weeks. For this research project, each student will be paired with a LANL mentor who will propose project topics and provide guidance. Each project will involve some hands-on programming of a quantum computer (IBM’s, Quantinuum’s, Quera, D-Wave’s, as available). If time permits, the students will begin preparing their results for publication.
This is an fantastic opportunity with so many of the student projects delivering important findings on various hot topics related to quantum computing. This is a testament to the quality of the mentorship provided by the staff scientists involved in the school.
More information including how to apply is available here. The application deadline is January 11th, 2026.
