PHY 4320 - Introduction to Electromagnetism

Credits: 3

Course Description:

The theory of electromagnetic fields and waves is developed from basic principles. Vector calculus, coulomb’s law, Gauss’s law, electrostatic potential, dielectrics, solutions to Laplace’s and Poisson’s equations, magnetic induction, vector potential, magnetic materials, Maxwell’s equations and propagation of waves in space and various media are discussed.
