Workshop Description

This one-day workshop will provide an introduction to dependent type theory. It is intended for post-graduate (Masters or PhD-level) students in Computer Science or related fields. No previous knowledge of or experience with type theory is required. By the end of the workshop, the participants will have received an overview of the history and current state of research in this field, and have received their first experience in using type theory for the formalisation of mathematics, and be aware of the current state of research into programming languages with dependent types.

This workshop is part of the TCS-SOUP series.
