Physics 6431 - Classical Electrodynamics (Ponce de Leon)
Text
- Classical Electrodynamics, Third Edition (Jackson)
Grading
- The grading is based on four exams, each of which has a weight of 25% of the final grade. They will be based on examples done in class, suggested problems, and exercises given through the course.
- The first three exams will be during the time of class on February 12, March 12, and April 19. The date of the final exam is suggested by the registrar.
