# Call for Participation

```
SUMMER SCHOOL ON ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING

Utrecht, the Netherlands, 08 July – 12 July 2024

http://www.afp.school

```

\*\*Please register before June 1st \*\*

## ABOUT

The Advanced Functional Programming summer school has been running for  
more than ten years. We aim to educate aspiring Haskell programmers  
beyond the basic material covered by many textbooks.

The lectures will cover several more advanced topics regarding the  
theory and practice of Haskell programming, including topics such as:

- lambda calculus;
- monads and monad transformers;
- lazy evaluation;
- generalized algebraic data types;
- type families and type-level programming;
- concurrency and parallelism.

The summer school will be held in Utrecht and consists of a mix of  
lectures, labs, and a busy social program.

## PREREQUISITES

We expect students to have a basic familiarity with Haskell  
already. You should be able to write recursive functions over  
algebraic data types, such as lists and trees. There is a great deal  
of material readily available that covers this material. If you’ve  
already started learning Haskell and are looking to take your  
functional programming skills to the next level, this is the course  
for you.

## DATES

**Registration deadline: June 1st, 2024**  
School: 08 July – 12 July 2024

## COSTS

750 euro - Profession registration fee  
250 euro - Student registration fee  
200 euro - Housing fee

We will charge a registration fee of 750 euros (or 250 euros for  
students) to cover our expenses. If this is problematic for you for  
any reason at all, please email the organisers and we can try to offer  
you a discounted rate or a fee waiver. We have a limited number of  
scholarships or discounts available for students that would not be  
able to attend otherwise, especially for women and under-represented  
minorities.

## FURTHER INFORMATION

Further information, including instructions on how to register, is

That’s strange. I can see it redirect correctly for me, both on my laptop and mobile. But the github link is the correct one – thanks very much for sharing that!
