-The main purpose of the course is to introduce the student to the basic concepts, results, tools and methods of the Representation Theory of Finite Groups and its applications to other areas of Mathematics, mainly in Group Theory, and other related sciences, e.g. in Physics.
+The aim of the course is for the postgraduate student to reach a good level of theoretical background on topics related to the theory of commutative rings.
-At the end of the course, we expect the student to understand the basic concepts and the main theorems that are analysed in the course, to understand how these are applied to concrete examples arising from different thematic areas of Mathematics and related sciences, to be able to apply them to derive new elementary consequences in various fields, and finally to be able to perform some (not so obvious) calculations related to several problems arising in Group Theory.

-The course aims at enabling the graduate student to acquire the ability to analyse and synthesize basic knowledge of the basic Representation Theory of Finite Groups, which is an important part of modern Mathematics with numerous applications to other sciences, for instance in Physics.  When the graduate student comes in for the first time in connection with the basic notions of representation theory and its applications to group theory, (s)he strengthens her/his creative, analytical and inductive thinking, and her/his ability to apply abstract knowledge in different areas of central interest in Mathematics and related sciences.
+The aim of the course is to empower the postgraduate student to analyse and compose basic notions of Commutative Algebra.
