Welcome to the Clemson Quantum Club!

The Clemson Quantum Club (CQC) is a student-led organization on a mission to make quantum computing accessible to every student at Clemson University. Whether you study computer science, physics, engineering, mathematics, or any other field, quantum technologies are shaping the future — and we believe everyone deserves a seat at the table.

We host weekly meetings, hands-on coding workshops, and study groups that take students from zero quantum knowledge to writing and running real quantum circuits. Our members learn industry tools like IBM Qiskit, PennyLane, and Cirq through guided bootcamps and collaborative projects.

CQC regularly sends teams to quantum hackathons across the country and around the world — including MIT's iQuHACK, the NYUAD International Hackathon in Abu Dhabi, and the SC Quantathon series where Clemson teams have taken home top honors. In 2026, we are bringing our own hackathon to Clemson with SC Quantathon v3, a 48-hour event open to students from any university.

Beyond competitions, we connect students with research opportunities, industry mentors, and a growing network of quantum enthusiasts. No prior experience is required — just curiosity and a willingness to learn.
