MAT1244: ABSTRACT ALGEBRA (DTP)

The module aims to equip students with the knowledge and confidence to help them to develop skills, attitudes and values to successfully implement the mathematics CBC at secondary schools. This module enables students to review algebraic structures: groups, rings, modules, and fields; homomorphisms and isomorphisms; group actions, centralizers, normalizers, stabilizers, and kernels; cosets and Lagrange's theorem; conjugacy; normal subgroups and quotient groups; the Sylow theorem and applications; representations of a finite group.
