About syllabus for this course

I plan to cover the material in chapters 1,2,3,5,6,7 in the book by A. Terras and some material on Galois theory for more general fields (to supplement section 7.6 in Terras). For the last topic, I will post some notes. You can also read about Galois theory in the book by J. Fraleigh. Time permitting, we will look at some of the applications in Terras' book (most likely 4.2, 4.5, 8.2 and 8.3).
