Overall Educational Objective To acquire a knowledge in the basic principles of electromagnetism and fundamental laws of electricity and magnetism as well as the physics of electromagnetic waves and famous Maxwell’s equations which are widely used in designing many machines and devices, with a perspective of using them in engineering applications.
Course Description This course discusses topics related to electromagnetism. The topics covered in this course are; electric charge and force, electric field; Gauss’s law, electric potential, capacitance and dielectrics, current, resistance and electromotive forces, DC circuits, magnetic fields and forces, sources of magnetic field, electromagnetic induction, inductance and circuit oscillations, electromagnetic waves.

Course Learning Outcomes and Competences

Upon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:
1) comprehend the nature of the electric charge, evaluate the conservation laws related with electric charges and electric current;
2) demonstrate knowledge of electric potential energy;
3) comprehend the roles of circuit elements such as resistors, capacitors and inductors and the analysis of the circuits;
4) demonstrate knowledge in production mechanisms of magnetic force and fields through determining magnetic fields for some geometries;
5) demonstrate knowledge in magnetic induction, and its effects and engineering applications;
6) demonstrate knowledge in the electromagnetic waves.

Course Administration giza@mef.edu.tr

Students are expected to attend 70% of the classes. There is no make-up for missed classes. One make-up exam will be given at the end of the semester for those who miss an exam due to a legitimate excuse accepted by the instructor. The students are expected to pursue in this class with honesty and integrity. Disciplinary action will be pursued in all instances if academic dishonesty and cheating has occurred. Students with disabilities should consult the instructor for their special needs. For any question, please consult the instructor via mail (giza@mef.edu.tr).
