ECE 335: Electromagnetic Theory I - fall

Prerequisite: ECE 201; MTH 213 or 211; and PHY 112 or 114; for CPE/ECE majors only

General Education requirement: Natural Science Technology

Fundamentals of time-invariant electric and magnetic fields and time-varying electromagnetic fields leading to general Maxwell's equations. Topics include the electromagnetic model, vector calculus, electrostatic fields, steady electric currents, magnetostatic fields, electromagnetic induction, slowly time-varying electromagnetic fields, and Maxwell's equations in integral and differential form; solutions of Maxwell's equations in the presence of boundary conditions are presented. Maxwell's equations in complex domain are introduced and utilized. Circuit theory and its relationship to electromagnetics is presented as an approximate form of Maxwell's equations. Numerical techniques for field computation are introduced.
