Office Hours: Tuesdays 1:30-2:30 (I will also usually be around at the same time on Thursday, and feel free to stop by anytime and see if I am free).
Lectures:
Thuesday-Thursday 12:00-1:30 in Skiles 271
The required text for this course is
- Topology by James Munkres (2nd edition).
I will try to make the lectures fairly self-contained so the main reason you will need the books is as another source for some of the material and for the homework problems. (If you would prefer not to buy the book, you can probably get by just copying the relevant problems out of the book when I assign them.)
The course grade will be based on the following.
Homework: 50%
Midterm:
20% Final Exam:
30%
Every week or two I will assign a set of homework problems.
You should check the homework web page regularly, since I will not always announce when I post
an assignment. You
will have between one and two week to work on the problems (the exact due date will be on the
problem set).
Final Exam is tentatively
scheduled for Thursday, December 10 from 11:30 till 2:30.
