Bachelor of Engineering
Subject Code: 3140912
Semester-IV
Subject Name: Electromagnetic Fields
Prerequisite: NA
Rationale: Study of electromagnetic fields is basically concerned with study of charges at rest and in
motion. Electromagnetic principles serve as basic fundamentals for detailed and in-depth study of
electrical engineering and are indispensable for analysis of various electrical, electro-mechanical and
electronic systems. This subject would cover the behavior of static and dynamic, electric and magnetic
fields.
