Hi All,

I have an undergraduate degree in computer science and engineering and master degree in computer engineering. Currently I am doing my second masters in nano technology. After this master degree, I like to do research in area related to QM e.g. qunatum cellular automata, Quantum electronics, qunatum circuits. I like to enroll in an university that teaches QM through online/distance. I can't find any such univerisyt or organization through google. Can anyone suggest such a organization or university that offers courses in qunatum mechanics or maths courses related to QM?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you for your interest in quantum mechanics (QM) and for reaching out for information on universities or organizations that offer courses in this field through online/distance learning. As a scientist with a background in computer science and engineering, I can understand your curiosity and desire to explore the exciting world of QM.

While there are limited options for online/distance learning in the field of QM, there are a few reputable universities and organizations that offer courses or programs in this area. Some options you may want to consider include the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) OpenCourseWare, which offers free online courses in quantum mechanics, and the University of Oxford's online course in quantum mechanics for beginners. Additionally, organizations such as the Institute of Physics and the American Institute of Physics offer online resources and materials for learning about QM.

I would also recommend reaching out to universities that offer traditional on-campus programs in QM to inquire about any potential online or distance learning options they may have. It is also worth mentioning that many universities now offer remote learning opportunities, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, so it may be worth checking with universities in your area as well.

I hope this information helps guide your search for online QM courses. Best of luck in your future studies and research in this exciting field.


 

What is QM?

QM stands for "quantum mechanics". It is a branch of physics that studies the behavior and interactions of particles at the atomic and subatomic levels.

Why is QM important?

QM is important because it helps us understand the fundamental nature of matter and energy, and it has led to many important technological advancements such as transistors, lasers, and MRI machines.

What are some key concepts in QM?

Some key concepts in QM include wave-particle duality, uncertainty principle, superposition, entanglement, and quantum tunneling.

How is QM different from classical mechanics?

Classical mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with macroscopic objects, while QM deals with microscopic objects. Classical mechanics follows deterministic laws, whereas QM incorporates probability and randomness.

What are some practical applications of QM?

Some practical applications of QM include transistors and other electronic devices, lasers, superconductors, and quantum computers.
