The Institute for Integrated Circuits and Quantum Computation offers courses in various degree programs such as Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence.
Teaching Philosophy
We view our students as the promising future generation of scientists and engineers who will have an impact not only on the economy but on society in general. We are thus deeply committed to teaching on the highest academic standard, without discrimination, and with a balance of foundational concepts and technical details. We strive to create a student-centered learning environment that encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and active engagement.
Teaching Materials
We try our best to convey complex topics in a fashion that is as simple as possible, but not simpler (Einstein). Our teaching materials tend to come in the form of LaTeX lecture notes composed in English. They have received excellent feedback+evaluations throughout.
