\noindent
This is an introductory course in electromagnetism and contains: {\em Electrostatics}
(Coulomb's law, Electric fields and forces, Gauss' law, Electric potential and energy,
Conductors, Dielectrics, Capacitance); {\em Magnetostatics} (Magnetic fields and
forces, Magnetic dipoles, Biot-Savart law, Ampere's law, Magnetic flux, Magnetic
materials); {\em Electromagnetic induction} (Faraday's law, Lenz' law, Inductance);
{\em Electric circuits} (DC- and AC- circuits, Impedance, Resonance). 

\noindent
The second half of the second semester is devoted to a project where the student selects
a topic related to electromagnetism and works independently or in a small group.
The project may be experimental or theoretical in character and involves writing
a report.
