Homological algebra is the algebra that was invented in order to define and study the homology and cohomology of topological spaces, but it has applications all over mathematics. Planned contents (subject to change):
Abelian categories
Projective, injective and flat modules
Complexes
Resolutions, Ext and Tor
Group cohomology
Triangulated categories and derived categories
Students are expected to already have some familiarity with rings and modules

The binding module descriptions contain further information, including specifications on the "types of assignments" students need to complete. In cases where a module description mentions more than one kind of assignment, the respective member of the teaching staff will decide which task(s) they assign the students.
