    semester score. Presence & thinking are encouraged.


    ■ Special Comments:

    1. This course is most appropriate for those who have taken circuit theory, ordinary and

    partial differential equations, and Fourier transforms.

    2. Capability of using math software (e.g. Matlab) is necessary in homework assignments.

    3. Exam questions about transmission lines will solely come from lecture notes and

    homework, tracing the related chapters of the textbook is frustrating and unnecessary.

    4. The purpose of this course is to “reorganize” your existing knowledge about

    electromagnetics in a systematic manner. Starting from the four fundamental postulates

    (Maxwell’s equations), all experimental laws can be places under a united hierarchy.

    5. The textbook is well written and worth reading line by line. The lecture notes are

    designed to summarize the key topics with minimal number of examples, which can be

    used as a guideline of studying. Examining more examples from the textbook by yourself

    is strongly recommended.

    6. Some of important topics will be investigated in homework for lack of lecture time. They

    will be present in quizzes and exams.

    7. The homework questions will be less complicated than those of the previous years. You

    are not supposed to solve them perfectly, however, practicing them independently is

    essential to consolidate your understanding.

    8. There are too many formulas in electromagnetics, and repeating them from memory does

    not help in the long term. The key to success is “visualizing” the formulas, which relies

    on understanding of vector analysis.

    9. One can hardly expect to get familiar with Electromagnetics within one semester. You are

    encouraged to review it again and again. The same line may impress you with different

    meanings in successive times of reviewing.
