Teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) is a rising star technique among metaheuristic techniques with highly competitive performance. This technique, which has been recently introduced, is based on the effect of influence of a teacher on learners and learners on their colleagues. This paper intends to apply an improved version of TLBO in the field of electromagnetics. To demonstrate its effectiveness in this area, the proposed technique is applied to two benchmarks related to brushless direct current wheel motor problem and testing electromagnetic analysis methods problem number 22. The quality of the results presented shows that the proposed technique is very competitive with other well-known optimization techniques; hence, it is a promising alternative technique for optimization in the field of electromagnetics.
