This interdisciplinary program—developed in collaboration with Cleveland Clinic—integrates computer science, mathematics, physics, and specialized tracks like AI, cybersecurity, and life sciences to equip students with the skills needed to solve complex problems using quantum technologies. As quantum computing revolutionizes industries and scientific discovery, students will gain a competitive edge in this transformative field, graduating ready for careers in industry, research, and beyond.
Curriculum and Courses
Miami University’s Bachelor of Science in Quantum Computing is an interdisciplinary program that combines Quantum Computing with a corresponding specialization. Students will take 124 total credit hours which includes a minimum of 91 technical credit hours for a robust foundation.
Core Technical Requirements
To build a strong technical foundation, all students complete coursework across four areas:
- Mathematics and Physics
- Fundamental Computing
- Quantum Computing
- Cybersecurity, AI/ML, and Entrepreneurship
Choose Your Specialization
Students further tailor their education by selecting one specialized track to deepen their expertise:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Cybersecurity
- Finance
- Life Science and Bioinformatics
- Neuroscience
- Physics
Key Quantum Computing Courses
A structured progression of quantum courses builds students’ knowledge from fundamentals to advanced applications:
- QTM 161 Quantum Computing Basics
- QTM 261 Quantum Information Processing
- QTM 361 Quantum Algorithms
- QTM 461 Quantum Security Standards: FIPS 203 and FIPS 204
- QTM 462 Advanced Quantum Computing Applications
Students culminate the program with a Senior Design Project where they solve real problems for industry partners while building their portfolios and teamwork skills. Strong business collaborations provide companies with fresh insights and technical expertise, while students gain hands-on design experience and valuable professional connections.
Additional Opportunities
Here are some of the many opportunities you will have to participate in outside of class.
Co-ops/Internships with Cleveland Clinic
Students will have the opportunity to pursue summer co-ops/internships at the Cleveland Clinic, home to the IBM Quantum System One quantum computer.
By offering a unique blend of disruptive computing skills as applied to a specific application area, including the health sciences, this degree program is poised to create a new generation of trailblazers that can apply advanced computational skills to solve the world’s most challenging problems.
