Introduction
The development of a quantum computer calls on expertise in a wide range of scientific fields, including quantum mechanics, as well as experimental and theoretical physics, photonics, computer science, and software engineering.
This list is for you if you are a physicist, a computer scientist, or a student who is interested in becoming a quantum computing scientist.
The topics include:
- Quantum mechanics
- Quantum information processing
- Quantum computing
- Quantum information theory
If you are also considering graduate school, you should start by reading: "Preparing for the quantum revolution: What is the role of higher education"
