Math 520 and Math 521 are intended primarily for graduate students, but undergraduate seniors may take these courses for undergraduate credit. Undergraduate students who have not yet attained senior standing may likewise enroll for undergraduate credit, provided they obtain the instructor's permission. The purposes of this course sequence are to prepare students for more advanced studies in higher-level mathematics, to prepare students for research that involves topology, and to give students an understanding of topology for its own sake. Although the content of this course sequence may vary from semester to semester, the course usually covers general topology in detail. This course usually does not cover differential topology or algebraic topology in much depth.
Topology is used in many different areas of mathematics.
