東大、京大などの国内トップ大学に入るには、くだらない入試の洗礼を受けなければならない。特に醜悪な英語の試験をはじめとする文系科目の試験を受けなければならない。これからの時代は、そういった馬鹿馬鹿しい入試を延々と続けるような体質の大学に応募する時代ではない。優種な理系の人はキッパリとアメリカのトップ大学一択とするのが合理的なのだ。繰り返しになるがアメリカの大学は入試を実施しない。書類選考だ。面接も必須ではない。あなたを遮るのは高額な学費だけだ。
さて、Undergraduateレベルで本格的にQuantum Computingを学習できる大学は数少ないがUniversity of Maryland College Parkはその一つである。詳細は下記を読まれたし。
University of Maryland at College Park
The University of Maryland at College Park (UMD) is well-renowned for its work in physics and, in the last decade or so, has put emphasis on recognizing the importance of quantum computing in future generations. In the words of the University of Maryland president, Dr. Darryll J. Pines, “Quantum can be for us what silicon was for Silicon Valley. This is that big play for the state of Maryland and this entire region.”
This same enthusiasm is reflected in UMD’s partnership with leading quantum companies, such as IonQ and the National Quantum Lab. The former fosters close industry and student connections in quantum research and the latter directly results in the UMD Quantum Machine Learning research stream. The quantum machine learning research stream is nested under the First-Year Innovation & Research Experience (FIRE) program, intended to bring first year college students into this daunting world of quantum research through inclusivity-focused mentorship and hands-on projects.
Furthermore, UMD fosters the next generation of quantum startups through the unique Quantum Startup Foundry (QSF), which bridges the gap between the current startup industry and bringing quantum technologies to the wider market. In simple terms, the investment in the next generation of quantum leaders is clear, making UMD stand out.
