Matthew Nojimu Olanipekun Sadiku from the Prairie View A&M University, Cypress, TX was named Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2013 [1] "for contributions to computational electromagnetics and engineering education". He is a co-author of the textbook Fundamental of Electric Circuits with Charles K. Alexander.
Faraday's experiment showing induction between coils of wire: The liquid battery (right) provides a current which flows through the small coil (A), creating a magnetic field.
Electromagnetism is one of the fundamental forces of nature. Early on, electricity and magnetism were studied separately and regarded as separate phenomena. Hans Christian Ørsted discovered that the two were related – electric currents give rise to magnetism.
Investigation into electromagnetic phenomena began about 5,000 years ago. There is evidence that the ancient Chinese, [1] Mayan, [2] [3] and potentially even Egyptian civilizations knew that the naturally magnetic mineral magnetite had attractive properties, and many incorporated it into their art and architecture.

The most common description of the electromagnetic field uses two three-dimensional vector fields called the electric field and the magnetic field.These vector fields each have a value defined at every point of space and time and are thus often regarded as functions of the space and time coordinates.
Classical electromagnetism or classical electrodynamics is a branch of physics focused on the study of interactions between electric charges and currents using an extension of the classical Newtonian model.
Maxwell's equations on a plaque on his statue in Edinburgh. Maxwell's equations, or Maxwell–Heaviside equations, are a set of coupled partial differential equations that, together with the Lorentz force law, form the foundation of classical electromagnetism, classical optics, electric and magnetic circuits.
