Advanced Topics in Programming Languages 2024/25

Advanced Topics in Programming Languages is a fourth year optional unit at the University of Bristol. The unit provides a grounding in the field of Programming Languages (PL), along with an insight into what it is like to be a PL researcher.

This year the unit will be based on Robert Harper’s book Practical Foundations for Programming Languages (Cambridge University Press, 2nd edition, 2016). An electronic copy of the book may be obtained through the University of Bristol library.
