Quantum Broncos
a quantum computing club @ WMU
western michigan university · kalamazoo
hey. we're a small group of broncos who got curious about quantum computing and decided to just… figure it out together. you don't need to be a physics major. you don't need to know any of this yet.
the whole point is we learn it as a group — no experience needed — so bring a notebook and a coffee. if "a qubit can be |0〉 + |1〉 at once" sounds confusing, good. that's exactly why we meet.
what we actually do
- study sessions. every week we pick one thing — qubits, superposition, some algorithm that shouldn't work but does — and grind through it on the whiteboard until it clicks. snacks usually involved.
- hands-on stuff. we write real code in Qiskit and run it on actual IBM quantum computers (it's free, and honestly kind of wild that you can from a laptop in Kalamazoo). you'll write your first quantum program sooner than you'd think.
- no pressure. miss a week, come back, nobody keeps score. we're here because it's fun.
stuff we get up to
- weekly study nights (the main thing)
- an intro-to-Qiskit crash session at the start of each semester
- a Qiskit hack day we're slowly putting together for the fall
- the occasional guest talk + watch-along. sometimes pizza.
(some of this is still half-scribbled. we figure it out as we go.)
come study with us
first one's the hardest. after that it's just your thursday. the easiest way in is our discord — that's where everything actually happens.

or just show up thursday — we'll save you a seat.
