Objectives
The course examines the basilar elements of classical electromagnetism with the aim to provide to the students a complete picture of this discipline with particular reference to those thematic strictly connected to the engineering.
Knowledge and ability of understanding: The course intends to furnish, in concise and proper way for the applications, the knowledge of the basilar notions and applications of classical electromagnetism.
Ability to apply knowledge and understanding: The course has as objective that to make the student able to assimilate acquired theoretical knowledge and to know how to resolve exercises concerning problems of classical electromagnetism.
Communicative ability: The course will to provide the ability of the student to expose in a clear and rigorous way the acquired knowledge. At the end of the course the student has to be able to enunciate in a correct way definitions, problems and theorems concerning the contents of the course itself.
Autonomy of judgment: The students are driven to learn in a critical and responsible way all the arguments exposed during class lectures and to enrich his/her own abilities of judgment through the study of the didactic material pointed out by the teacher.
Prerequisites
The course requires the knowledge of basic mathematics topics: algebra, elementary geometry, logarithms, trigonometry, basic elemental differential calculus, first and second equations and inequalities, algebraic systems.

Teaching Methods
Teaching consists of 30 hours of frontal lessons and 30 hours of exercises with an additional a number of tutoring hours. Lessons and exercises will also be provided on the topics outlined with the aid of audiovisual material. Exercises will include the direct participation of students who will be invited to attend and discuss the exercises proposed by the teacher in the classroom together with the rest of the class.
Verification of learning
THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE COURSE OBJECTIVES WILL BE CERTIFIED BY A WRITTEN AND ORAL EXAM WITH GRADES ON A SCALE OF 30.

THE WRITTEN EXAM INCLUDES 2 EXERCISES TO BE SOLVED IN 2 HOURS; STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE ORAL EXAM IF THE GRADES OF WRITTEN TEST ARE AT LEAST 18/30.

INTERMEDIATE SCRIPT EXAMINATIONS OF 2 HOURS WITH TWO PROBLEMS CAN BE SCHEDULED DURING THE COURSE; THOSE WHO ACHIEVE AN AVERAGE GRADE OF AT LEAST 18/30 MAY OPT TO DIRECTLY SUPPORT THE FINAL ORAL EXAM.

THE EXAM IS ORGANIZED IN ORDER TO FULLY ASCERTAIN THE CANDIDATE'S KNOWLEDGE WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO HIS / HER ABILITY TO FULLY EXHIBIT CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE TOPICS OF THE STUDIED ARGUMENTS WITH A GOOD LEVEL OF CLARITY IN THE PRESENTATION OF THE TOPICS.

TO ACHIEVE A SUFFICIENT EVALUATION, THE STUDENT NEEDS TO DEMONSTRATE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE PHYSICAL LAWS DESCRIBED IN THE COURSE, TO CORRECTLY INTERPRET THE MEANING OF THE PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND TO IDENTIFY THE PHYSICAL LAWS TO UTILIZE IN THE SOLUTION OF THE EXERCISES.

GOOD TO EXCELLENT EVALUATION IS GRANTED TO STUDENTS WHO CAN PRESENT THE DEMONSTRATION OF THE ELECTROMAGNETISM LAWS DERIVED FROM PRINCIPLES, CORRECTLY AND QUANTITATIVELY APPLY THEM TO THE SOLUTION OF EXERCISES AND PRACTICAL PROBLEMS AND ARE CAPABLE OF IDENTIFY CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE TOPICS AND OTHER CONCEPTS OF PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICS FROM PREVIOUS COURSES.
