Course description: Introductory reading course on topics in real analysis with an emphasis on writing proofs. Topics include, but not limited to, construction of the real numbers, notions of convergence, metric spaces, the derivative, integrals.

Evaluation: continuous evaluation through weekly presentations and graded homeworks (70%). Final presentation (30%).

Course outcome: Will get a broad overview of the main ideas of real analysis and how to use them effectively to prove theorems. Students will also understand how to present mathematical ideas in a professional manner (both written and oral).
