The knowlege of all the compulsory courses in algebra, specially the course Estructures Algebraiques.
The aim of this course is to give an introduction a to the commutative ring theory.
This means to work with the basic concepts of commutative rings, their ideal structure and the modules over them.
At the end of this course, the students should know localization in rings and modules, factorization in commutative rings and integral dependence.
This course will follow essentialy the book "M.F. Atiyah i I.G. Macdonald, Introducción al Álgebra Conmutativa".
The contents will be:
1. Commutative rings.
2. Module theory.
3. Chain conditions.
4. Integral dependence.
5. Dimension theory.
The realization of parts 4 and 5 will depend on the development of the course.
This course has two hours of theory par week. The recommended bibliography is interesting; sometime during the course the students should complement and complete the content of the lectures using this bibliography.
There are problem classes (one hour par week). Every student should present the solutions of some lists of problems on the blackboard or in paper to the professor. To solve doubts about the course the student can ask questions to the professors during the class or in the office (with some schedule of times). The solution of these problems will be based in general on the theory: the theorems and their proofs.
The 6 hours of seminar classes of this course will be dedicated to solve problems collaborating several groups of students in the class room.
The course has a web “campus virtual” where the professors will put the lists of problems and other information about the course.

The evaluation of the course will be a 50% of continued evaluation, and a 50% of exams.
The "matrícules d'honor" will be decided taken into account the results of the continued evaluation and the exams.
