This is a free LUMSx Open Courseware video, featuring a course taught by Dr. Muhammad Sabieh Anwar to first-year science and engineering undergraduate students at the School of Science and Engineering. The course aptly titled “Quantum Physics for Beginners” gives an intuitive feel to the foundations of the rapidly expanding frontiers of quantum physics and quantum information. It aims to balance between conceptual correctness, accessibility, and applications grounded in real systems. It is very different from a typical modern physics course generally taught in universities, in that the current version uses a strongly ahistorical approach that focuses on the nature of quantum information, quantum states, and their manipulation.

The course website is http://www.physlab.org/modern-physics-2024 where you can find homework and other notes on the course progression.
