The document outlines two core mathematics courses: Group Theory and Riemann Integration, detailing their credit distribution, eligibility, and prerequisites. Group Theory focuses on symmetric groups, homomorphisms, and classification of groups, while Riemann Integration covers the integration of bounded functions and its applications. Both courses aim to enhance students' understanding of mathematical structures and their practical implications.

Learning Objectives
The primary objective of this course is to introduce:
● Symmetric groups, normal subgroups, factor groups, and direct products of groups.
● The notions of group homomorphism to study the isomorphism theorems with applications.
● Classification of groups with small order according to isomorphisms.

Learning Outcomes
This course will enable the students to:
● Analyse the structure of 'small' finite groups, and examine examples arising as groups of
permutations of a set, symmetries of regular polygons.
● Understand the significance of the notion of cosets, Lagrange’s theorem and its
consequences.
● Know about group homomorphisms and isomorphisms and to relate groups using these
mappings.
● Express a finite abelian group as the direct product of cyclic groups of prime power orders.
● Learn about external direct products and its applications to data security and electric circuits.
