| Instructor: | Bernard Shiffman, Krieger 410 Office hours: Wednesday 2-4 | 
| TA: | Yujie Luo Math
  Help Room Hours: Friday 3-5 | 
| Lecture: | TuTh 12-1:15, Maryland 202 | 
| Since this is a 4-credit
  course with no section meeting, you will need to spend extra time on the
  reading and assignments.  | |
| Text: | Gamelin, Complex Analysis, Springer, 2001. An electronic version of
  the book is available to download free at this link
  using a computer on the Hopkins network. But I strongly recommend buying the
  printed version, which is available in paperback from Amazon
  and other sellers. | 
| Prerequisite: | 110.405 or 110.415 | 
| Grading: | weekly homework assignments
  (50%), midterm exams (25% each) | 
| Homework: | Since the purpose of the
  homework is to gain better understanding of the material, you may discuss the
  homework with other students in the course, but you must write up the
  homework solutions on your own. Copying
  homework from another student or from the internet or any other source is a
  violation of academic integrity. Homework will be assigned each week and
  will be due the following Tuesday in class. No late homework will be
  accepted for any reason, including excused absence. Missing or late
  homework will be given a grade of 0,
  even if you have a good excuse. To allow for one absence or other
  circumstances, the lowest homework grade will be dropped. | 
| Exam dates: | In
  place of a final, there will be two midterms on Tuesday, Oct. 16, and
  Thursday, Dec. 6. | 
| Course policy: | You are expected to attend and actively participate in
  class. Check your email regularly; announcements related to the course will be
  sent to your JHU email address. Finally, please silence cell phones and
  refrain from text messaging or using electronic devices during class. | 
| How to get the most out of the
  class: | Complete the reading before
  the lecture. Questions are encouraged during class; if there is something you
  don't understand or are unsure of, please speak up! I also encourage you to
  come to office hours for help anytime you have questions. Begin the homework
  early, so you can get help with any problems you're having trouble with. |
