QuSTEAM for your institution
Accessible Quantum Education for Every Institution.
With funding from the NSF Convergence Accelerator, a team of 75 professors from a variety of fields, including a quarter of the team from STEM disciplines, has created four courses built from flexible modules. These courses are being piloted in 2022-2023 across 25 diverse institutions. Our network meets the needs of the public and private sectors, helping universities and colleges offer critically needed undergraduate education in quantum information science and engineering. On the one hand, industry and government have crisis-level needs to expand the QISE workforce. On the other hand, the interdisciplinary nature of the necessary curricular pivot creates barriers for colleges as they aim to attract students with engagement in relevant curricula and relationships with the workforce. QuSTEAM can support your institution to easily add QISE curricula.
