Qiskit Fall Fest Morocco

at Faculty of Science, Mohammed V University in Rabat

Morocco 2022

Welcome


This is the Qiskit Fall Fest event for Faculty of Science, Mohammed V University in Rabat. We're so excited to have you all here. This event is being hosted by the Laboratory of High Energy Physics: Modeling and Simulation & Centre of Physics and Mathematics (CPM),

The Qiskit Fall Fest is a collection of quantum computing events on college campuses around the world. Every Fall Fest event is organized and run by the students on each campus, with support from the entire IBM Quantum team. Student leaders work alongside IBM throughout the month of September to design and plan their events, which are then run in October. The events vary from technical hackathons to beginner-friendly challenges, all with the goal of helping to grow the local community’s skill set.

The Fall Fest here on Faculty of Science, Mohammed V University is going to be a hackathon, starting on October 28nd. Details about the hackathon and rules can be found below. The deadline for all projects is October 30st, at 11:59pm GMT+1 . Any projects submitted after that will NOT be judged. Good luck!
