Electromagnetic Theory for Electrical Engineering

The theory of classical electromagnetism, is the foundation for the conception of systems used in electrical engineering for the generation, transformation, transmission and consumption of energy in electrical form or otherwise. In this course, you shall acquire the necessary tools to conceive the structure of electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism withing the energy supply chain as well some other applications.

Introduction on the course on Electromagnetic Theory

The course on electromagnetic theory for electrical engineering, is heavily based on the use of the computer to determine the electric and magnetic configuration of physical systems comprising different charge and current distributions. A priority is set to be, the understanding of the structure of electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism from Maxwell's equations, and to derive the basic empirical laws as Coulomb's Law, Biot-Savart's Law and Jefimenko equations from Maxwell's equations, to then give structure to all electromagnetic theory.

The central aim of the present course is to provide the student with the abilities to conceive complex systems in electrical engineering where the interplay between charge distributions, current distributions, electric fields and magnetic fields become a fundamental aspect in the conception of systems that enable the operation of energy infrastructure, such as transmission lines, rotation electric machines, transformers, dielectric and ferromagnetic materials, among others.
