We want to introduce to algebraic geometry so that we understand at least some basic facts necessary for the construction of the Hilbert scheme of points on an algebraic surface. A first course in algebra is a mandatory prerequisite for this course. Further knowledge of advanced algebra, function theory, differential geometry may occasionally be helpful. We start with a quick presentation of classical algebraic geometry and then focus to the modern approach using the language of schemes. There are many good books on algebraic geometry and even more different flavours
Math overflow question: best algebraic geometry textbook?

In this course we follow mostly these lecture notes:
Introduction to Schemes. G. Ellingsrud, J.C. Ottem
