Introduces engineers to quantum theory. In this course you will learn how to describe many different physical systems (such as atoms, electrons, light, mechanical oscillators, and tops) mathematically. It also explores different notions of quantumness such as entanglement and non-contextuality. The foundations obtained in this course are important for further study of quantum hardware (sensors), communication, and computing. Recommended prerequisite: MATH 3430 or APPM 2360. Formerly ECEN 4915. Degree credit not granted for this course and ECEN 5915.
