The students understand the integral theorems of vector analysis and can use them to convert Maxwell's equations into each other in integral and differential form. They are able to describe electrostatic fields with and without the presence of dielectric materials and calculate their energy. They can describe magnetostatic fields with the help of the vector potential.
The students understand the basic principles of induction and can apply the induction laws, for example to problems arising in the circuit board design of RF circuits. They understand the overall formulation of Maxwells theory in the context of what has been learned.
