College Courses For Quantum Computing?

Posted by Cliff on from the learning-up-on-the-field dept.

Tyler asks: "I'm currently an undergrad engineering student at a respectable school, and right now I'm pretty sure I'm majoring in CompE. I'd really like to do some work with Quantum computers in the future, but I don't know what exactly makes up a good quantum-computing engineer, so I want to take some courses over the next few years to become familiar with the science. What courses should I be taking?"

    Follow this link to check out a class offered at UC Davis. Btw, my roommate is an undergrad research assistant to Prof. Chong. I've seen some of the lectures, pretty crazy stuff. My advise is to take lots of EE, CS, math and physics coursed, esp. Quantum.

    That's my 2x10-2 [USD] :)
