Electromagnetism with Theory

Prereqs

  • 8.01- Not particularly useful
  • 18.02(coreq)- Needed, significant vector calculus so either taking 18.02 or plan on learning a lot of stuff on your own.

Textbook

Purcell- Good book, about half of PSET problems are from it but lecture notes are enough to learn material without reading the book.

Comments

Amazing class, great teaching staff, PSETs time consuming but class worth taking over TEAL

James' review: Interesting and challenging (in the good way). I enjoyed the lectures, and the book was readable, but the problem sets were where I really came to understand what was going on. Its definately worth putting time into them. And Scott Hughes is amazing.
