Abstract

This open educational resource introduces Maxwell’s equations as the central laws of classical electrodynamics. It explains how electric fields, magnetic fields, electric charge, electric current, and changing fields are connected in one coherent field theory. The resource presents Maxwell’s equations in both differential and integral forms, with student-friendly explanations of divergence, curl, flux, circulation, displacement current, electromagnetic waves, and the Lorentz force law. It also connects Maxwell’s equations to electromagnetic induction, antennas, transformers, optical fibres, microwave systems, electromagnetic compatibility, plasma physics, space physics, and modern technologies. This material is designed for students preparing for university-level physics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, communication technology, and related STEM fields. This archived version is based on the live Prep4Uni.online learning page. The live page may be updated over time with additional explanations, illustrations, questions, and related learning links.
