Discover the Quantum World : Richard Feynman put it in memorable words: “Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical, and by golly it’s a wonderful problem, because it doesn’t look so easy.” But much progress has been made since 1981, when Feynman delivered his seminal lecture ‘Simulating Physics with Computers’. And today there is a global race towards Quantum dominance, Quantum Supremacy having been demonstrated by Google, a few years ago. India’s past contribution to Quantum is well known and acknowledged. Half the quantum particles are called Bosons, named after Satyen Bose. And CV Raman was awarded the Physics Nobel Prize in 1930 for his discovery of the Quantum phenomenon named the Raman Effect.

Initiate your journey to the Quantum World, through the very popular messaging app Whatsapp. The journey begins with a weekend program on ‘ Why learn Quantum ?’ though you would have been curious about “ Quantum” even to notice the existence of such a program. If this weekend experience increases your curiosity and you want to know more, then a weeklong course on ‘ Demystifying Quantum’ is your next step. Once you have done this weeklong course, you will not be able to keep yourself from wanting to do the monthlong course “ Quantum for young learners”. The reason it is so named is that it is capable of being appreciated and enjoyed by learners who are at the Secondary stage (classes 9 to 12) of their School years, as formulated in the NEP 2020 ( https://lnkd.in/dF_ramWQ ) and NCF 2023 ( https://lnkd.in/dJswYq56). Here are the links to know more about the above 3 programs:
The month long program on ‘Quantum for Young Learners ‘ : https://lnkd.in/dGzjpNJU The weekend program on Why learn Quantum is offered during the first weekend of every month, and the weeklong program on Demystifying Quantum is offered during the 3rd week of every month. But for the really enthusiastic, the weekend course can be made available on any weekend, the weeklong course can be pursued in any week from Monday to Friday. The monthlong courses are offered beginning on the first Monday of every month. Once you would have done all the three courses above, you are on your way become a member of the community of aspiring Quantum Professionals.
