Tests are given for the first five major sections of the course (Transmission lines, Vector analysis, Electrostatics, Magnetostatics, and Time-varying fields). Tests are graded by TA, and each test accounts for 10% of the overall grade for the course so that all five tests account for 50% of the overall grade. Tests are not returned to students. You will have one week after posting the grades to discuss your grade with TA. Home assignments are given for each of the six major sections of the course (the five indicated above plus Electromagnetic waves). Home work turned in after 2:00 p.m. on the due date is not accepted. Home work is graded by TA, and each assignment accounts for 3% of the overall grade for the course so that all six home works account for 18% of the overall grade. Solutions of home assignment problems are posted on the course website after the home assignment due date. Home works are returned to students. Final exam is comprehensive and accounts for 32% of the overall grade for the course. The final exam is graded by TA and reviewed by the instructor. Problems on the final exam are of the same level of difficulty as those on the home assignments and tests. Exams are not returned to students.
