COURSE OBJECTIVEAlthough many can benefit, three specific groups are targeted with the following goals.
• Provide a practicing Professional Engineer (PE) with the information or refresher on electromagnetic theory and provide for the engineer assigned to a related job with the minimum knowledge to properly evaluate the design and testing of a system.
• Provide a practicing Engineer with the requisite knowledge to adequately review and analyze designs and testing for compliance with goals and requirements.
• Provide a licensed Electrician with an understanding to be able to assess impacts on systems for installation or design changes, and proper safe operation.
Information is divided into two courses focused on electric side of things in Course 1 and magnetic side of things in Course 2. While some may consider the information limited, terse for those with more knowledge, it is meant to provide an overview of theory for those dealing with the many aspects of electromagnetism applications, all while inserting enough references for more detailed study.
Focus will be on the basics of knowledge given that truly understanding
the basics helps in maintaining necessary skills along with the ability
to accomplish tasks competently and confidently.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The focus of this course will be on electromagnetism, its many applications and interactions, and the guiding equations. Electrostatics, electrokinetics, magnetostatics, magnetokinetics with a focus on understanding the development and use of said equations. And, where required, provide additional sources of information for in-depth study.
NOTE
Access to any basic theory book (see the References) is helpful but is not required for completion of the course(s).
