ACM SIGPLAN Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop, Seattle, 
Washington, US


Monday, September 4, 2023


PLMW is a workshop co-located with ICFP 2023 (the International 
Conference on Functional Programming) in Seattle, WA, from September 4-9.


The purpose of this mentoring workshop is to encourage graduate students 
and senior undergraduate students to pursue careers in programming 
language research. This workshop will bring together world leaders in 
programming languages research and teaching from academia and industry 
to help students imagine how they might contribute to our research 
community. Topics will range from the abstract (e.g., what is PL 
research and how does one become involved in it) to the concrete (e.g., 
how to navigate an academic conference, how to pick a research area) as 
well as technical talks on cutting-edge topics.


We especially encourage women and underrepresented minority students, 
and people with disabilities to attend PLMW.


This workshop is part of the activities surrounding ICFP, and takes 
place the day before the main conference. One goal of the workshop is to 
make the ICFP conference more accessible to newcomers. We hope that 
participants will stay through the entire conference.


Note that ICFP and PLMW are planned to be largely in-person events. 
While we recognize that travel to conferences is not easy for everyone, 
we do hope you will be able to join us in person to get the most out of 
the conference and its community-building aspects.


A number of sponsors have generously donated scholarship funds for 
qualified students to attend PLMW. These scholarships can cover expenses 
(airfare, hotel, and registration fees) for attendance at both the 
workshop and the ICFP conference.


Students attending this year will get one year free student membership 
of SIGPLAN, unless they prefer to opt out during their application.


The workshop registration is open to all. Students with alternative 
sources of funding are welcome as well.


APPLICATION FOR PLMW TRAVEL FUNDING:

For full consideration for scholarship funding, please apply at the link 
below by July 14, AoE. We will notify accepted attendees in a rolling 
fashion until all funding is committed.
