12 - 16 April 2021, 21st Midlands Graduate School in the Foundations of Computing Science (MGS 21), Virtual

Date: 12 - 16 April 2021
Location: Virtual

The annual Midlands Graduate School in the Foundations of Computing Science (MGS) offers an intensive programme of lectures on the mathematical foundations of computing. It addresses first of all PhD students in their first or second year, but is open to anyone interested in its topics, from academia to industry and around the world. The MGS has been run since 1999 and is hosted alternately by the Universities of Birmingham, Leicester, Nottingham and Sheffield. MGS 21 is its 21st incarnation.

MGS 21 consists of eight courses, each with four or five hours of lectures and a similar number of exercise sessions. Three courses are introductory; one is given by an invited lecturer. These should be attended by all participants. The remaining more advanced courses should be selected based on interest. MGS 21 aims at a mix of livestreamed and prerecorded lectures and livestreamed exercise sessions, with additional social online events.
