Overview

This course aims to familiarize the student with advanced electricity and magnetism and the use of advanced mathematics concepts and formulas in solving scientific research issues related to electromagnetic theory and helping to develop skills and ways of thinking in dealing with advanced issues as well as training in the use of special theories to solve electromagnetic problems. It covers topics of problems Boundary conditions in electrostatics I and problems of boundary conditions in electrostatics II and multipolar and electrostatics and insulators and variable fields

Intended learning outcomes

By the end of this course the student will be able to:1- It uses new methods and advanced solutions for advanced electrical and magnetic issues.2- He uses what he studied in the course in his scientific research.3- Explain the natural phenomena related to electromagnetism.4- Explains natural phenomena and transforms them into an issue that can be interpreted and studied as scientific research.5- Uses advanced mathematics to explain electrical and magnetic phenomena.6- Apply special functions and special theories to obtain scientific and logical results.7- Distinguish between solutions.
