What You'll Learn

MTH351 Coding Theory introduces students to mathematics behind successful transmission of data through a noisy channel and correcting errors in corrupted messages. The topics covered are of central importance for many applications in computer science and engineering. The course gives a comprehensive introduction to coding theory whilst only assuming basic linear algebra. The issues of bounds and decoding essential to the design of good codes will be featured prominently. Pre-requisites requirement is MTH207 Linear Algebra.
