Study Guide

Objectives (course unit)

After completing this course student knows the fundamental laws of electricity and magnetism, can describe electric and magnetic phenomenona by using quantities and their dependences and can make justified solutions of related problems, and can apply the field concept in electricity and magnetism.

Content (course unit)

Electric and magnetic fields, Electric components and circuits, Electric and magnetic properties of materials, Electromagnetic induction, Operating principles of basic electrical devices and sensors.

Prerequisites (course unit)

Before taking this course, the student should have completed courses in Mechanics and, Fluid Mechanics and Thermophysics, or corresponding courses.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

Knowledge of the most essential phenomena and related quantities and units in electricity. Capability to analyse qualitatively and quantitatively simple cases related phenomena similar to discussed examples

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

In addition capability to apply the principles to new situations. Fluent usage of the terminology and models in presentations of justified qualitative and quantitative analyses of phenomena.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5) (course unit)

In addition versatile ability to analyse phenomena qualitatively and quantitaively realizing the limitations related to theories in use.

Exam schedules

Base level exam for grade 1 (online, can be taken as many times as needed)
Final exam for grades 2-5.

Retake exam dates are published towards the end of the course
