Clemson Quantum Club

Clemson Quantum Club is a student-led club at Clemson University focused on giving students the opportunity to learn and interact with quantum computing at any level. We offer the opportunity to participate in hackathons, attend conferences, and tune into seminars.

SC Quantathon is a yearly quantum hackathon hosted by Clemson Quantum Club since 2024. It is open to all skill levels and it's a great opportunity to explore quantum computing, become familiar with ML and AI, learn new skills, and network with professionals.
