[Haskell] Summer school on Applied Functional Programming at Utrecht University

[Johan Jeuring]

We offer a summer school on 

Applied Functional Programming in Haskell
August 19 - 30, 2013 
Utrecht University. 

The deadline for registration is May 20, 2013.
Almost 20 students have already registered.

In the previous four occasions students were all very happy with the school and we plan to repeat this success this year.

Among the intended audience are prospective master students who gained an interest in Functional Programming, e.g. by taking a general course on programming languages, and want to learn more about Haskell and its typical programming patterns. In previous years we have taught an introductory part (advanced bachelor level), an advanced part (beginning master level) and a shared part for both groups. Topics covered are, besides some examples of domain specific languages, monads, monad transformers, arrows, parser combinators and self-analysing programs, underlying principles, type inferencing, etc. 

Half of the course time is spent on a larger programming exercise; you can also come with a problem of your own if you want, and get help from the Utrecht University Software Technology group in finding the proper Haskell idioms, tools and libraries, for solving it.

Please forward this announcement to potential participants.

 Best,
 Doaitse Swierstra, Atze Dijkstra and Johan Jeuring
