INDRAPRASTHA INSTITUTE of INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DELHI (A Sate Unversity estoished by Government of HET of Dei) Regulations for Minor in Quantum Technologies Preamble: ‘The minor program (For B.Tech. students) is designed to enable a student with foundational knowledge in quantum computing and quantum technologies, thus providing them with the opportunity to join the global workforce in several aspects of quantum computing. A B.Tech. student can earn a minor certification in Quantum Technologies by completing at least 20 credits. OF these, 16 credits should be from courses specified below and at least 4 credits from project or self-study courses as explained below. Credits that are counted towards the minor program cannot be counted towards the discipline credit ofthe graduation requirements of the respective programs of the students. ‘The Minor Program is owned and managed by the Department of Electronics and Communication (BCE). ‘Course_bucket_1: 12 credits should be earned from these core courses: ECExxx Quantum mechanics CSE422/CSE622 Introduction to quantum computing ECE524 Quantum materials and devices ECES45 Photonics: fundamentals and applications MTHxxx Quantum information theory Course_bucket_2: 4 credits should be earned from these options: ECExxx Quantum communication and networks ‘CSExxx Quantum and post-quantum cryptography ECES17 Introduction to Nanoelectronics ECESO1 Information Theory MTHS14 Coding theory CSES26 Lattices in Computer Science Advanced Solid State Devices Approved online courses, along with a mandatory proctored exam component, specific to quantum technologies as given below.

Project/Self-study courses: 4 credits can be earned from Independent Study (IS), Independent Project (IP), Undergraduate Research (UR), or 8 to 12 credits can be earned from a B.Tech. project (BTP). ‘Students have to pursue atleast one of these options, The program coordinator and the BTP advisor he ‘Okbia Industral Estate, Phase-l, New Delhi 110020, NDIA « T =94 11 2690 7400-7404 « F oT 11 2690 7405 « wnwit.8e.into certify thatthe projectcourse ison a relevant topic. Students are encouraged to take up such projects in collaboration with the quantum technology industries in India and abroad, Prior knowledge: This minor program requires inter-disciplinary skills and is only intended for students with a strong background in calculus, linear algebra and probability theory. Benchmarking: A Minor program in quantum information and similar fields is not yet very common in India, or even worldwide. Wherever they are offered, they require about 4-6 courses along with a project. We have tried to retain that flavour with suitable adjustments added keeping in mind our current ‘course offering. ‘Sequencing: This is the recommended sequence of courses.
