Welcome to MAT 312/AMS 351
This course is an introduction to algebraic structures with a heavy
emphasis on applications. On the algebra side, we will study algebraic properties
of integers and such structures as sets and groups. On the applied side, we will discuss public key
cryptography and error correcting codes. The course also provides a good opportunity
to learn how to read and write rigorous proofs.
These pages will be updated regularly throughout the semester.
For specific course-related information, go to the Course info page.
Other pages here contain the (tentative) course schedule,
home assignments, a list of suggested projects,
and exam reviews.
