Learning outcomes
Knowledge
The students are expected to deal with the basic algebraic structures like
groups, rings, fields and with an introduction to the Galois theory.
They will be tested on the basis of various exercises and examples.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
The students is asked to solve a number of problems in the written exam and
to give proofs and examples relative to the matter of the course.
Methods:
- Final oral exam
- Final written exam
- Periodic written tests
Further information:
No special weighting, but roughly 50% is assigned to the written exam and roughly
50% to the oral exam.
Teaching methods
Delivery: face to face
Learning activities:
- attending lectures
- individual study
- group work
Attendance: Advised
Teaching methods:
- Lectures
- Task-based learning/problem-based learning/inquiry-based learning
