<ul>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Magnetic Fundamentals:</span> In the first learning sequence, we will introduce the basic principles of magnetic materials. We will explore the different types of magnetic materials, and you will learn about the origin of magnetism in oxides and in transition metals.</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Anisotropy:</span> In this learning sequence, we will cover several topics necessary to understand magnetic anisotropy, including magnetic domains, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, shape anisotropy, and domain wall energy. </li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Homework Assignment #1:</span> Homework Assignment #1 is available this week. </li>
</ul>
