I am currently having a Master in topics such as Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory and recently I started studying Representation Theory where I've seen definition, theorems and propositions concerning rings that are non-commutative in general. I am wondering if there's any "standard" book(s) that can introduce me to the theory of non-commutative algebra.

Ones I have used extensively
First Course in Noncommutative Rings by T.Y. Lam- Isaacs Graduate algebra
Basic abstract algebra by P. B. Bhattacharya, S. K. Jain & Nagpaul
Others often mentioned as standard (but I did not really use)
- McCoy's The theory of rings
- Dummit and Foote's Abstract algebra
- Hungerford's Algebra
Noncommutative rings by Herstein
Ones I have not used extensively but would recommend
- Lambek's Lectures on rings and modules
- Jacobson's Basic Algebra volumes I and II
Books that are a step up from an introduction
- Anderson and Fuller's Rings and categories of modules
- Lam's Lectures on modules and rings
- Louis Rowen's books and Carl Faith's books on algebra and ring theory.

A good method might just be to search for "Artin-Wedderburn theorem" in google books and just pick anything promising from the tons of hits that come back. That is a standard introductory topic in noncommutative algebra.

If I can make an addition, I'd say that Farb and Dennis' Noncommutative Algebra is pretty good as well. It's treatment of semisimplicity and the Jacobson radical are quite nice, and its approach to central simple division algebras is all based on going to the Brauer Group and seeing $H^2$ from a different light than the usual Galois cohomological perspective. They also focus on homological techniques, which are nice to see and useful if you're into $p$-adic representation theory.
