This course combines instruction of electromagnetic theory in parallel with its associated mathematical tools. The course covers the theory of electricity and magnetism including electric charges, forces, fields and potentials; electric currents; magnetic forces, fields and potentials; electromagnetic induction; and Maxwell's equations and plane waves in vacuum. Required mathematical theories are developed alongside the physics and include vector functions, divergence and curl, Green's and Stokes's theorems, the properties of three-dimensional curves and surfaces, and Fourier Analysis.

Prerequisite: Physics 261 and Mathematics 204.
