Albert Einstein

Einstein worked at the patent office in Switzerland. During his work in his office, he made much amazing project. He invented some scientific works in 1905. He found the theory of relativity in physics. He made a formula E= m.c2. E was Energy, m was mass, and c was the speed of light in vacuum ( ca.300,000 km/s).

Einstein became Privatdozent in Berne in 1908. He was also the professor of extraordinary in Zurich in 1909. He earned professor of theoretical Physics in Prague in 1911. He was the director of Kaiser Wilhelm Physical Institute and professor at the University of Berlin in 1914. He got a German citizen in the same year. He went to U.S. and settled in Princeton, New Jersey in 1940. He became a professor of theoretical physics there.
