A brief history of quantum computing: Part 1 - Quantum physics | Quantum computing 1

Lectures from an upper undergraduate/graduate course in Quantum Information and Computation, using the textbook Nielsen and Chuang (10th ed.), and assuming a background in linear algebra. Taught at Michigan State University in Spring 2026. This video covers a brief history quantum computing. In addition to highlights from Chapter 1 of Quantum Computation and Quantum Information (10th. ed) by Nielsen and Chuang, our timeline covers key milestones in the history of physics and computing, culminating in the creation of quantum information and the first beyond-classical quantum computation.
