Summer School on
General Algebra and Ordered Sets

The program will consist of three tutorials (three 60 minutes lectures each), two planary invited lectures (60 minutes each), and short contributed talks of the participants, most of them in two parallel sections (20 minutes). Each tutorial will introduce an important field of current algebraic reasearch, and shall be accessible to (advanced) graduate students of algebra.

The full schedule of the conference can be found here. Here is a short overview:
