MATH 3500 - Algebra I: Introduction to Rings and Proofs


Credits: 3
Begins with common features of integers, rational numbers, and polynomials, leading to study of rings in general. Topics include divisibility, factorization, and modular arithmetic for integers and polynomials, and homomorphisms and ideals for rings. Proof techniques include direct proof, proof by contrapostive, mathematical induction, and proof by contradiction.


Prerequisite: MATH 2800  and grade C or better in MATH 2250  or concurrent registration in MATH 2250 .
