CWI highly values education. CWI researchers not only supervise and inspire the CWI PhD students, but also aim at contributing to teaching Master's students at universities. See the overview of CWI's current involvement in teaching courses in the Netherlands below.
CWI is a research institute and does not have education as an institutional task. However, many of the senior researchers of CWI contribute to education via an affiliation or part-time appointment at one of the Dutch universities.
The courses they teach are listed below in chronological order, starting with the earliest upcoming course.
This course is intended to introduce master’s students to advanced topics in quantum computer science. It is a stepping stone between coursework and the research component of the master's thesis project. Through four modules taught by four different instructors, students will explore current research areas by looking at specialized topics at the forefront of quantum computing and quantum information theory.
The course will feature the following specialized topics: Quantum walks and algebraic graph theory, Quantum proofs for classical theorems, State Tomography and shadow tomography, a small tour, and Quantum algorithms for classical topology.
