This course will cover basics of abstract rings and fields, which are an important part of any abstract algebra course sequence. We will spend roughly the 4-5 weeks on rings. We will begin with definitions and important examples. We will focus cover prime, maximal ideals and important classes of rings like integral domains, UFDs and PIDs. We will also prove the Hilbert basis theorem about noetherian rings. The last 3-4 weeks will be devoted to field theory. We will give definitions, basic examples. Then we discuss extension of fields, adjoining roots, and prove the primitive element theorem. Finally we will classify finite fields.
