Goal 4: Quality Education
- Basic concepts of electromagnetics, Maxwell's static equations, and constitutive equations.
- Fundamental operations of vector analysis, field quantities. Directional derivative, gradient, curl, and divergence. Path, surface, and volume integrals, along with their associated integral theorems.
- Development and basic postulates of electromagnetic theory.
- Static current problem, electric potential, current density, conductivity. Derivation of Kirchhoff's laws and the resistor circuit model from the basic laws of electromagnetism.
- Static electric field, permittivity, electric dipole, polarization. Coulomb's and Gauss's laws. Capacitor and capacitance in terms circuit and field quantities.
- Static magnetic field, magnetic dipole, magnetization, hysteresis, magnetic circuits. Ampère's, Gauss's, and Biot-Savart's laws. Inductor and inductance in terms circuit and field quantities.
- Maxwell's equations in integral and differential forms.
- Interface conditions for field quantities.
- Energy stored in electromagnetic fields.

Completion option 1
Successful completion requires satisfactory performance in assignments and an exam. The course can be completed by accumulating activity points throughout the course, taking the exam, or through a combination of both. A certain minimum number of activity points must be achieved for a student to be eligible to take the exam, and these partial achievements must be related to the same course implementation.
Completion of all options is required.
