Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
Partim A
The course aims at deepen and formalise the notions of electromagnetism taught in the first year. The course covers electrostatics, magnetostatics, electrodynamics, Maxwell's equations, conservation laws and electromagnetic radiation. It also covers the relativistic formulation of electrodynamics.
Partim B
The course aims at deepen the resolution of problems of electrodynamics.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Partim A
After the completion of this course, the student will be able to :
- move from the global to the local (differential) form of the laws of classical electrodynamics
- understand the physical meaning of Maxwell's equations and their consequences (superposition principle, conservation of electrical charge, energy, momentum, ...)
- be able to set and solve Maxwell's equations of electromagnetic systems (in electrostatics, magnetostatics and electrodynamics)
Partim B
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Partim A
Physics and mathematics learned during 1st block
Partim B
Physics and mathematics learned during 1st block

Assessment methods and criteria
Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.
Any session :
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire, open-ended questions )
- Remote
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire, open-ended questions )
- If evaluation in "hybrid"
preferred in-person

Additional information:
A written test covering exercices (35%) and theoretical concepts/global comprehension (65%) is organized in June and August in face-to-face mode if conditions permit, otherwise in remote mode.
