IEEE Educational Events

Introduction:

As part of our commitment to advancing knowledge in Quantum Computing, the IEEE Computer Society at GJU is hosting a workshop titled:

“Advancing Quantum Computing: Bridging Theory and Practice in the Quantum Era.”

The session will offer both theoretical insights and hands-on practice, led by Chair Qasem Al-Hroub.

Workshop Schedule:

The workshop will be structured into two parts:

4:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Part 1: Theoretical Lecture

• Basics of quantum mechanics in computing
• Key concepts: Qubits, superposition, entanglement, quantum gates
• Overview of quantum computing hardware (superconducting qubits, trapped ions)
• Introduction to Shor’s and Grover’s algorithms
• Economic and industrial impact of quantum computing

5:00 PM – 5:30 PM | Coffee Break

5:30 PM – 6:15 PM | Part 1: Continued

• Further exploration of quantum computing concepts
• Challenges in scalability and commercialization

6:15 PM – 6:30 PM | Coffee Break

6:30 PM – 7:30 PM | Part 2: Practical Session

• Hands-on Qiskit programming
• Writing and running quantum circuits on IBM Quantum tools
• Practical examples: Quantum teleportation, error correction, basic quantum algorithms
• Bridging theory and real-world applications

Venue and Setup:

The event will take place at Uruk Study House and Cafe, Amman, in a collaborative environment for learning and networking.

Goals and Objectives:

• Introduce fundamental quantum computing principles
• Provide hands-on experience with Qiskit and IBM Quantum
• Discuss the future of quantum computing and its impact on industries

Future Steps:

• Confirm logistics (venue setup, equipment)
• Promote the event on social media
• Prepare slides and Qiskit materials for the session

Conclusion:

This workshop is a great opportunity to explore cutting-edge quantum technologies through both theory and practice. We look forward to engaging the community in this exciting field.
