Basic knowledge of foundations of mathematics and mathematical logic.

Knowledge and understanding:
Understanding of logical foundations of mathematics and the fundamental limitations of the axiomatic method.
Application:
Logic, being the foundation of mathematics, provides the means for communication and methodology in mathematics.
Reflection:
The fact that there are mathematical problems without solutions invites a thorough reconsideration of the nature of mathematics.
Transferable skills:
Ability to formally express mathematical content. Ability to perform meta-mathematical analysis.
