COURSE OBJECTIVE
➢ This course seeks to introduce you to some fundamental concepts of classical electromagnetism
spanning from Coulomb’s law, Gauss’ law, Ampere’s and Faraday’s laws of electromagnetism.
➢ The concept of electrostatic fields due to charge distribution will be dealt with, magnetic fields
in and around current carrying conductors; time-varying magnetic and electric fields.
➢ We shall also look at wave propagation in good conductors, skin effect, plane waves in
unbounded dielectric media, electromagnetic potential and the concept of the Poynting vector.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
➢ At the end of this course, it is expected that you would develop an “understanding” of the concepts of
classical electromagnetism.
❖ Understand the concepts of time-invariant and time-varying electric and magnetic fields.
