We are excited to announce the 10th Annual @NYUAD International Hackathon for Social Good will be held in person and will focus on one of the most promising technologies of our time, Quantum Computing (QC). We will form cross-disciplinary global teams building solutions to challenging problems we are facing today using Quantum Computing technologies. Participants will learn about quantum computing
and use quantum-based technologies, while developing their own solutions and working in cross-disciplinary and diverse global teams. This special Hackathon will also bring top global Quantum Computing experts from both industry and academia to mentor, lead the teams, and explore along with the students solutions to a wide range of challenging projects from machine learning and AI, to physics (complex simulation problems), Math, Chemistry, to online gaming, healthcare, security, and the arts (quantum-generated artwork). Since quantum computing is expected to revolutionize the world as we know it, we need to make sure that our hackathon participants are equipped with the necessary skills needed for QC and empower a new generation of students to use the most advanced quantum hardware. We would also like the participants to utilize these acquired new QC skills for social good and make a positive impact on the future of our society, as quantum computers are capable of solving hard computational problems. We plan to partner with top Quantum computing research centers (QC center at NYU and CERN), and companies such as Google, Astrazeneca, Microsoft, IBM’s Quantum research team, Qiskit (as we will use the Qiskit python package for QC) teams to provide our interdisciplinary hackathon participants with high-level quantum computing education (virtual workshops, labs along with keynote lectures and lighting talks), prior to the Hackathon. Make sure that you nominate your top students or apply to be a mentor asap from the main website: https://sites.nyuad.nyu.edu/hackathon/
