  2. Early Life

  3. Life In Germany • Born in Ulm Wuttemberg, Germany in 1879 to a secular Jewish middle-class family • His Father, Hermann Einstein was a salesman and engineer and his mother, Pauline Koch ran the house hold • He had 1 sister named Maya • Started his curiosity for science at the age of 10 • Attended elementary school at Luitpold Gymnasium in Munich, there he enjoyed classical music and played the violin • He felt alienated and struggled with the rigid Prussian education • He struggled in his speech • Family later moved to Italy

  4. Private Life 1st wife MilevaMarić(1903–1919) 2ndwife Elsa Einstein (1919 - 1936) children: Hans Albert Einstein (1904 - 1973), Eduard Einstein (1910 - 1965)

  5. Early Achievements • Graduated with his diploma in 1901 and acquired a job at Swiss Patient office at the age of 17 • 1905 he obtained his Doctrine Degree • 1902, published 4 of his influential researched papers. (e=mc2) • Appointed Privatdozent in Berne in 1908 • Became Professor Extraordinary at Zurich in 1909 • Became the Professor of Theoretical Physics at Prague in 1911 • Appointed Director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Physical Institute and Professor in the University of Berlin in 1914

  6. Discovering Theory of Relatively 1905 was know as Mr. Einstein’s “miracle year”, he obtained an doctorate degree and published 4 of his influential researched papers. (Switzerland) Papers included what is know today as the Theory of Relatively . e=mc2, which unlocked a universe that was unknown

  7. Achievements 1925, finish General Theory of Relatively. 1920, won a Nobel Peace Prize in Physics Emigrated to United States in 1933 and moved to Princeton, New Jersey

  8. About Relative Theory The measurement of different types of quantities are relative to the velocities of observers. In particular space and time. Space and time should be considered together and in relation to each other. Speed of light is nonetheless changeless, the same for all for all observers. • Elements which comprise this theory are not based on hypothesis but on empirical discovery. • Understanding on general characteristics of natural processes. • Separate events matches conditions and experience match conclusion.

  9. Einstein's Contributions • The four major areas of science that Albert Einstein contributed to are Light, Time, Energy and Gravity. He published four outstanding scientific papers in the year 1905. This year is therefore called Einstein's annus mirabilis or miracle year. He put forth the following explanations for the scientific community.

  10. Some more work !! Einstein's researches are, of course, well chronicled and his more important works include Special Theory of Relativity (1905), Relativity (English translations, 1920 and 1950), General Theory of Relativity (1916), Investigations on Theory of Brownian Movement (1926), and The Evolution of Physics (1938). Among his non-scientific works, About Zionism (1930), Why War? (1933), My Philosophy (1934), and Out of My Later Years (1950) .

  11. April 18, 1955 Einstein Died Einstein Healthcare Network hospital in his name in Philadelphia. Many other place were named after Einstein.
