The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture is a millennium problem originally stated for elliptic curves over the rationals and later generalised to abelian varieties over number fields. In this course, we will learn about the different geometric and arithmetic invariants that occur in the conjecture and their significance in the broader context of arithmetic geometry.

Certainly you don't need to know all of these topics to join the course, but if you do, it might help you connect it to other things you know about.
