Educational objectives
Mathematical comprehension and capability to connect the various subject of the course and to solve the proposed exercises.
Prerequisites
Good knowledge of the subjects of Algebra I, independently of the passing of such exam. What is needed in particular is a good confidence with the properties of natural and integer numbers (including the Euclidean division) and of the residue classes, of the functions and their invertibility, of the relations and finite cardinalities (including basic notions of combinatorics) an infinite cardinalities.
Teaching methods
face to face lessons and tutoring by advanced students

"assisted teaching" (exercises done with the help of the teacher and/or a tutor)
Other information
Upon request, both the written test and the oral examination are given in English

usage of platform "uni-studium"
Learning verification modality
Oral examination, lasting 45-60 minutes, which tends to evaluate the level of understanding of the topics treated and of critic study and personal rethinking.

The topic of the first question is chosen by the student.
Extended program
Algebraic structures. Permutations. Omomorphisms. Direct products. Normality and conjugates. Cuachy theorem and Sylow theory.
Fundamental theorem of omomorphisms for groups and rings. Prime and maximal ideals.
Euclidean, principal and factorial rings. Characteristic of rings and fields. Polynomial rings.
Ring and field extensions.
