Abstract Algebra

Syllabus, Fall 2006

This is a rough schedule of homework assignments. Changes may be made in class. I will introduce each section in class, but you must read the book for the details. Please come prepared to present your work and ask informed questions to help you complete the assignment, which is due in writing two class periods after it is made. You are expected to spend an average of two hours on each assignment.
