Course Objectives:	Based on Helmholtz Theorem, the concept and the complete definition of static electric and magnetic fields will be covered. All the laws will be derived from the postulates of electric field and magnetic field employing vector calculus. Then the coupling of the magnetic and electric field intensities will be discussed, something that happens for time varying fields: a step that leads to the complete Maxwell equations
