> I wonder if anything similar can be done for the undergrad electrodynamics course, which was more or less an experiment of “how many gnarly multiple integrals can you grind before burning out?” The classical field theory course was one of my favorites at the master level. Classical EM is beautiful in the sense that by sprinkling some math magic you can basically calculate everything from a few basic laws. Everything sort of fits together in a coherent tight package. TBH, the class did have a fearsome reputation for being math-heavy, and many of my class mates struggled (which was weird, because I was never super-strong in math compared to many of them).
