Prerequisites: A course in electromagnetism at the introductory level and a good knowledge of vectors and multivariate calculus.
Exams: There will be two exams during the semester (approximately in the 5th and 10th week) and a final, cumulative exam which will take place in the last class meeting. The final grade will be determined on the basis of these three exams; the first exam will account for 33.3 % of the course grade, the second exam will account for 33.3 % of the course grade, the final exam will account for 33.3 % of the course grade.
Exam Policy:
- All students are expected to connect on time for all exams.
- Any student absent from an exam will be given a grade of zero for the exam unless he provides a doctor’s note of explanation.
- Students will be allowed to prepare and use during the exam a handwritten, one-page letter format formula sheet.
Homework: Homework problems will be assigned during the semester. Homework assignments solved correctly lead to extra credit points, that are then added to the exam grades. It is extremely important that students solve the homework problems and ask any problem-related question they might have to the instructor.
