Electromagnetism: Problems and solutions is an ideal companion book for the undergraduate student (sophomore, junior, or senior) who may want to work on more problems and receive immediate feedback while studying. Each chapter contains brief theoretical notes followed by the problem text with the solution and ends with a brief bibliography. Also presented are problems more general in nature, which may be a bit more challenging.

About the Author(s)
Carolina C. Ilie, State University of New York at Oswego
Carolina C. Ilie is an Associate Professor with tenure at State University of New York at Oswego. She taught Electromagnetic Theory for almost ten years and she designed various problems for her students’ exams, group work and quizzes. Dr. Ilie obtained the Ph.D. in Physics and Astronomy at University of Nebraska at Lincoln, a M.Sc. in Physics at the Ohio State University and another M. Sc. in Physics at University of Bucharest, Romania. She was received the President’s Award for Teaching Excellence in 2016 and the Provost Award for Mentoring in Scholarly and Creative Activity in 2013. She lives in Central New York with her spouse, also a physicist, and their two sons.
Zachariah S. Schrecengost, State University of New York at Oswego (alumni)
Zachariah S. Schrecengost is a State University of New York alumni. He finished B.S. with double major in Physics and Computer Science and minor in Mathematics. He took the Advanced Electromagnetic Theory course with Dr. Ilie and loved to be involved in this project. He brings to the project both the fresh perspective of the student taking electrodynamics and the enthusiasm and talent of an alumni who is electrodynamics and upper level mathematics aficionado. Mr. Schrecengost works as computer engineer in Syracuse and prepares to start graduate school in physics.
