In general, the physical quantities we shall be dealing with Electromagnetics are functions of space and time. In order to describe the variation in space, we must be able to define all points uniquely in space in a suitable manner. In other words, there is a need for the appropriate coordinate system.

This course presents a specific and lucid explanation for the coordinate systems- Rectangular Coordinate System, Cylindrical Coordinate System and Spherical Coordinate System along with many worked examples and illustrations. This would be required at every point while studying Electromagnetism.

The course would certainly develop enough confidence with a representation of a point and vector into the different coordinate systems which in turn solidify the concepts of line, surface and volume integrals. The course consists of many worked illustrations for better understanding.

What will you get from Electromagnetics (Basics) course?

Who should take this course?

☞ Engineering or Science graduating students who have Electromagnetics in their Curriculum. Generally, Electromagnetic Theory is mandatory for Electronics, Electrical related branches of Engineering and Science. Many of the Universities have Electromagnetics in their curricula for third or fourth-semester studies of concerned branches.

☞ Anyone who is from Electrical or Electronics preparing for the GATE Exam.

☞ Anyone who want to understand the basics of Electromagnetics thoroughly.

Prerequisite before taking the Course

The knowledge of Vectors (Representation, Magnitude, Unit vector etc) is expected but not necessary.
