QIntern 2021 - opinions

QIntern is a unique opportunity to perform research breaking the barrier of physical distance. It allows students and mentors all over the world to meet and work on a project of interest. In QIntern 2021 I had the pleasure of working with some wonderful and bright students. (...) It helped me gain experience on mentoring, added research experience and publication on my resume.
Ritajit Majumdar (Mentor)

It was an amazing experience in QIntern2021 as that was my first Internship. Was exposed to some amazing projects and ideas. Very good support and guidance from mentors. What I liked most about the internship is the projects that were showcased which is very innovative.

It helped me move forward research on solving routing problems using quantum computing, initiate new research directions, conduct new experiments, build a research team, prepare a quantum computing session at the Warsaw IT Days 2022 conference. (...)
