Thechallenge in the first graduate course is to review and build enough of a foundation to launch thestudent into product design and research and to wet his or her appetite for advanced study.IntroductionA half century ago the first course at the graduate level in electromagnetic theory commonly wasbased on a textbook such as Plonsey and Collin.1 The course strongly emphasized Ma eequations and their analytical solution with applications to open- and closed-structures. In manyrespects the course outline followed that of its undergraduate cousin, but at the graduate levelvirtually every topic was approached with increased mathematical rigor. This theoreticalemphasis was especially strong in the
