QuSTEAM's Director of Innovation, Russell Ceballos, has been invited to participate in an upcoming SandboxAQ + NYU Tandon Educator Workshop. The workshop, scheduled to take place on March 24-25, 2023, will be led by Marianna Bonanome, Head of Education Outreach, and Kayla Quinnies, Residency Program Manager of SandboxAQ. One of the primary objectives of the workshop is to design an undergraduate Quantum Technology Minor program for students at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering.
Leveraging his extensive experience in quantum education, along with QuSTEAM's inclusive approach, Russell will co-present two breakout sessions during the workshop. The sessions are designed to accomplish the following goals:
Highlight current workforce opportunities available for quantum engineers.
Share best practices and models from existing undergraduate minor degree programs in quantum technology (QT) throughout the United States.
Guide faculty and administrators in identifying and addressing barriers to success for a QT minor degree program.
Support participants in designing their own QT minor program, drawing on the strengths of their existing major degree programs and resources, while aligning with their university's mission.
Overall, this workshop presents a unique opportunity for Russell and QuSTEAM to contribute their knowledge and expertise towards the development of a cutting-edge undergraduate Quantum Technology Minor program at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering.
