Robin Cockett Doctor Honoris Causa of Tallinn UT

[Tarmo Uustalu <tarmo@cs.ioc.ee>]

Hello Categories,

I thought it should be appropriate to share the news here.

The Senate of the Tallinn U of Technology has on 23 Jan 2024 decided to
bestow on the U of Calgary professor J. Robin B. Cockett the title of
Doctor Honoris Causa of the university. This is for his contributions
to advancing the study of mathematical foundations of algorithmics and
programming in Tallinn.

I am very happy for this distinction to Robin, who we have been
privileged to have as a teacher and friend for a long time (25 years!).
Robin's shining passion for his subject and his
uncompromising thoroughness have been particularly inspiring.

I am also very pleased to have our field spotlighted at this university
on this occasion; it is no small thing for us.

Tarmo U
