Subject: [PT] Midlands Graduate School in Foundations of Computing Science - last chance to register
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2014 22:36:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <765AF966-C234-4C87-A1F8-E7EC77DFD590@cs.bham.ac.uk> (raw)


Dear colleagues,

The Midlands Graduate School (MGS) in the Foundations of Computing  
Science is a collaboration between researchers at the Universities of  
Birmingham, Leicester, Nottingham and Sheffield. It was established in  
1999. The MGS has two main goals: to provide PhD students with a sound  
basis for research in the mathematical and practical foundations of  
computing and to give PhD students the opportunity to make contact  
with established researchers in the field and their peers who are at a  
similar stage in their research careers.

This year, the MGS is at the University of Nottingham. It will start  
on 22 April and finish on 26 April.
