Welcome to the first-ever Qiskit Fall Fest in partnership with IBM Quantum!
The Qiskit Fall Fest is a collection of quantum computing events on college campuses worldwide. Every Fall Fest event is organized and run by the students on each campus, with support from IBM Quantum. The events vary from technical hackathons to beginner-friendly challenges, all to help grow the local community's skill set. From Iowa State, we are designing a small workshop with hackathons and challenges at the end. It is brought to you by the Graduate Organization of Electrical and Computer Engineering (GO-ECpE)
This Workshop will include coding challenges, Hackathons, prizes, and Swags. People attending at least one session and who register will get an official certificate of participation from IBM
