Charles Steinmetz – ELECTRICAL POWER ENGINEERINGBorn on April 9, 1865, in Germany, Charles Steinmetz established the fundamentals of electrical engineering. Though he finished his work for a PhD in mathematics, he never received his degree. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1889 “without a penny in his pocket and not a word of English” where he was employed by a flourishing manufacturer of electrical machinery. Soon he established himself as one of the most creative mathematical minds in electrical engineering. He demonstrated the profitability of applying sophisticated mathematical techniques to practical problems.

August von HoffmanBorn on April 8, 1818, the German chemist Augustus Von Hoffman was a major discoverer of new organic compounds of nitrogen. He arrived in London as the first head of the new Royal College of Chemistry in Oxford street in 1845. He stayed for twenty years and he and his students created organic chemistry in England. One of these students, Perkin, made the first synthetic dye produced on any scale (mauve, from aniline) and founded the British organic chemical industry.
