The 3 biggest challenges of teaching electromagnetism

Featuring insights from Nathalie Raveu, Professor at N7 (Toulouse INP) and researcher at the LAPLACE laboratory Ask any electromagnetism professor what the hardest part of the job is, and you’ll hear some version of the same answer: the subject is invisible. Electric and magnetic fields, radiation patterns, polarization, none of it can be pointed at, […]
How antennas work: core concepts explained by an expert

In the world of engineering, certain disciplines are often shrouded in mystery. In the 2023 study “A Practical RF Engineering Curriculum for Engineering Technology Students,” D. Kim highlights that Radio Frequency (RF) is one of the most challenging subjects to teach. This difficulty stems from two primary factors: the rigorous theoretical requirements in physics and […]
