I hope this post doesn't break any community rules, I've tried to look for such but couldn't find.
I am concluding my first undergraduate course in Electromagnetism next week. I am confident in my ability to perform well on the exam, and I am eager to advance my understanding of the subject beyond the requirements of the course.
My goal is to grasp the underlying principles behind fundamental concepts, such as the reason a time-varying electric field induces a magnetic field, beyond simply accepting it as a result of Maxwell's equations.
I am also interested in solving real-world problems that professionals might encounter, as this would provide valuable practical experience.
Moreover, I aim to test and expand my theoretical knowledge. In one of our assignments, we were tasked with proving that a time-varying electric field in a parallel-plate capacitor results in a magnetic field that is parallel to the plates and circular in direction, while ruling out magnetic fields in the radial and axial directions. This problem encouraged me to think about the geometric aspects of Maxwell's equations more deeply.
I would greatly appreciate any recommendations or insights on how I can further explore and understand electromagnetism at a deeper level.
