We are surrounded by electronic circuits that help us in a multitude of tasks and we are so accustomed to them that we do not even realize that they exist and they are so useful to us. From appliances we have at home that are connected to the network or work with batteries, and that make life easier by controlling the temperature of the rooms or the food we want to heat or cool; to those we find in a movie theatre, in an operating room, in a subway station, at an airport, in a room with video games ... all of them are based on electronic circuits that exchange electrons, modify voltages...

We talk about the "cloud" where we have stored our photos, videos, lessons ... we are stuck to the multiple possibilities that our smartphone allows us ... we are fascinated with the possibilities of the Internet of things, the concepts of smart-city, smart-mobility, ehealth, elearning, ... we admire the increasingly advanced capabilities of cars and motorcycles ... we want the energy to be distributed more efficiently and transform it with less contamination... ... all these concepts and realities are based on electronic circuits.

It must be boring to be God, and have nothing to discover.
Stephen Hawking

The art of observation cannot be done when it is controlled by the dogma. Paradoxically, General physics is often presented as a rules set to be learned and correctly applied. Completely different conception is involved here where theoretical formulations are presented as tools to be used in the predictive and scientific observation and discarded if they are not useful for such purposes. Simultaneously, approaching to subjects involved in physical electronics will be performed. Initially, a classical point of view is introduced thought a review of a single particle physics which basics concepts will be applied in a many particle system scenario. Introduction of statistics in a many particle system problem will able us the definition of macroscopic averaged variables thus leading us to thermodynamics. Finally, unsolved problems will be analysed introducing modern physics of great importance in electronic engineering.

The main two goals of the course are to understand the principles and fundamental laws of Electromagnetism, and to acquiere the skills needed to solve practical problems related with these laws, either in the vacuum or in material media. For this purpose the fundamental laws, both in integral and differential form (Maxwell equations) will be formulated. In addition, it is intended that the student reaches the level of knowledge needed to follow successfully higher level courses.

The course is split in three chapters.

1.- Time independent electric and magnetic fields in the vacuum.
First of all the concepts of electric field generated by static distributions of charge, electric potential, electric energy, and electric potential energy, are introduced, for systems of either discrete or continuous charges. The calculation of the electric field is studied by applying the superposition principle and Gauss's law. The electric potential is calculated as the circulation of the electric field or by applying the superposition principle. The electrostatics of conductors in equilibrium and capacitors is studied. Then the concept of electric current, mainly focusing on the properties of ohmic conductors, is introduced.
In a second part the concept of magnetic field, and how to apply Biot-Savart's and Ampère's laws, is introduced. The effects of the magnetic field (forces and torques) on steady currents are also studied. Finally, the magnetic energy is defined and Gauss's law formulated.

2. - Time dependent electric and magnetic fields in the vacuum
In this chapter the generation of electric and magnetic fields due to either changes of the fluxes of the magnetic and electric fields with time or to changes of the own fields with time are studied. To fulfill this purpose, Faraday-Lenz's and Ampère-Maxwell's integral laws are formulated, and some applications of the electromagnetic induction phenomena are commented. The conservation of the electromagnetic energy by introducing the Poynting vector is also studied. Finally, Maxwell's equations are obtained by applying Gauss's and Stokes's theorems to the four fundamental laws in integral form.

3.- Electromagnetic fields in matter.
The fundamental laws of the electromagnetic field, both in integral and differential form, are generalized for dielectric and magnetic materials in the third chapter. The boundary conditions at interfaces are also obtained by introducing the electric displacement, D, and magnetic, H, vectors. Microscopic models to understand physically the polarization and magnetization phenomena are described.

The applied training of the student is complemented with some laboratory experiments.
