Explore electromagnetic field theory and develop the mathematical and analytical skills to understand electric and magnetic fields. You'll apply vector calculus, Coulomb's law, Gauss's law, Laplace's and Poisson's equations, and boundary conditions to analyze electrostatic and magnetostatic problems.
As you progress, you'll examine dielectric and magnetic materials, electromagnetic induction, Maxwell's equations, and electromagnetic-wave propagation. You'll also explore polarization, reflection, refraction, dispersion, waveguides, and resonators, developing how electromagnetic fields and waves propagate in materials.
Applied Learning Project
Apply electromagnetic field theory through problem-solving exercises and graded assessments covering electrostatics, magnetostatics, and electromagnetic waves. You'll use mathematical methods and fundamental electromagnetic principles to calculate electric and magnetic fields, solve potential problems using boundary conditions, analyze charge and current distributions, and examine electromagnetic-wave propagation in different materials.
