This course offers exercises related to the contents of Fundamentals of Electromagnetism 1 and 2. Students solve given problems and present their answers. This will allow them to understand electromagnetism and prepare them to solve more general problems in physics.
By completing this course, students will be able to:
1) Find mathematical solutions to problems in electromagnetism expressed by equations and explain the physical meanings of said solutions.
2) Acquire methods and approaches to solve more general problems in physics.
Coulomb's law, Gauss's flux theorem, the Biot-Savart law, Gauss's law for magnetism, Ampére's law, Faraday's law of induction, the Maxwell-Ampére equation, Maxwell's equations
✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
In this course, students solve given problems and submit a report. Problems will be given once every two weeks.

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
As specified in the lecture class.

Learning achievement is evaluated by student's class performance, reports, and attendance.
No prerequisites. We strongly recommend to take the corresponding Fundamentals of Electromagnetism 1 and 2.
Before coming to class, students should read the course schedule and check what topics will be covered. Required learning should be completed outside of the classroom for preparation and review purposes.
