Learning outcomes

1.

Choose appropriate mathematical tools and electrochemical and electromagnetic concepts to solve problems related to energy storage, biological systems, etc.

2.

Use the derivation of Maxwell's equations to analyse problems and explain the design and operation of devices in communications and optics.

3.

Communicate concepts in electrochemistry and electromagnetism, and relate them to an everyday device or application, for a specific audience, e.g. school group, university peers, general public.

4.

Demonstrate development of skills in computer simulation and modelling relevant to the study and use of concepts in electrochemistry and electromagnetism.

5.

Demonstrate ability to perform appropriate experimental techniques, collection of experimental data, and data interpretation.
