Course Overview

Classical Electromagnetism - 1 (Electrostatics) is one of the online courses by Dr H C Verma and others in his team. The course will be completed online through videos of the lectures prepared by Dr H C Verma and his team members in Hindi language. And the total duration of the course is four months and three lectures will be released every week and usually on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. The lectures released can also be accessed after the completion of the course.

In case you are pursuing BSc or MSc related to any field of physics, or have an interest in increasing theoretical knowledge in the theories of physics. So, it is the best way to utilize your time. Moreover, it is free of cost, and if you attend this, then certificates will also be issued depending on your performance from the Centre for Continuing Education (CCE), IIT Kanpur. During the course, you will be evaluated on the four multiple-choice quizzes that will be held.

In this course, you will be covering topics of Classical Electromagnetism - 1 (Electrostatics) such as Coulomb's Law, Gauss's Law, Dipole Moment, and many more. All the contents of the course are mentioned in the following article.
