This course will be an introduction to intersection theory in algebraic geometry. Covered topics will include the notions of algebraic cycles and Chern classes, and the construction of the intersection product on Chow groups. We will follow the approach of the subject due to Fulton and MacPherson, as exposed in Fulton's book "Intersection theory".
