The paper discusses experience, over a three year period, at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Cyprus, in introducing undergraduate students in Computer Science to principles of programming (modularity, abstraction, genericity) through a functional language, and more specifically the language Miranda. The viability of this approach as well as the consequences for other courses in the curriculum, as evidenced in practice, are analysed.
