Albert Einstein was the most influential scientist of our time. Despite troubles in education and learning as a child, Einstein surpassed the odds and helped revolutionize science today. With his theories on relativity and gravity, Einstein would inspire other great scientists explain the unexplainable. Einstein also helped in the advancement of modern warfare, by helping Robert Oppenheimer and Enrico Fermi in the creation of the atomic bomb. Although born in Germany, Albert Einstein indirectly helped the Allies win World War II and overcome Hitler's rampage for power. Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on March 14, 1879.

Albert did not like the methods of instruction in the Institute, but he was able to pass his examinations for his degree and graduated in 1900.
