Angela Huang ‘17, a senior computer science major, has been competitively selected to attend the Association for Computing Machinery–Special Interest Group on Programming Languages (ACM SIGPLAN) Mentoring Workshop. The Workshop will be held in conjunction with the 44th ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL) in Paris, France in January 2017.
Angela received an invitation to attend the workshop and professional conference with a full scholarship, including registration fees, travel, and accommodations.
The Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop aims to encourage graduate students and senior undergraduate students to pursue careers in programming language research. The workshop brings together world leaders in programming languages research and teaching from academia and industry to provide (a) technical sessions on cutting edge PL research and (b) mentoring sessions on how to prepare for a research career. The workshop aims to engage students in a process of imagining how they might contribute to our research community.
The Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages is a leading international forum for the discussion of all aspects of programming languages and programming systems. Both theoretical and experimental papers are presented.
