Clemson Quantum Club

We're Clemson's student-led quantum computing club. We compete in hackathons, host workshops and seminars, and meet biweekly to learn and build together.

No prior experience is required — students from every major are welcome to pick up the fundamentals, join a hackathon team, and see what quantum computing can do.
