Description

The official department syllabus for this course can be found here.

You are expected to read the sections of the book before they are discussed in class. I will lecture with the assumption that everyone is familiar with definitions and basic ideas.

Homework

Homework will be assigned on a weekly basis and will be due at the start of the section on Friday. Late homework will not be accepted, but at least 2 lowest homework grades will be dropped. The assignments will be posted on the schedule page .

You are allowed to work in groups but each student should write up their own solutions. Copying is not allowed. I encourage you to attempt the homework problems on your own before discussing them with your classmates. This will better prepare you for the exams.

Exams

There will be a midterm and a final. There will be no makeup exams. If you miss the mid-term exam and you have a valid excuse, your final exam grade will count for your midterm. Missed midterms without an excuse will count as 0.

Grading Policy

Homework - 30%
Mid-term - 30%
Final- 40%
