When his family moved to Karlovac, he continues his education there. After that he went to Prag University, graduated in 1880. He was very clever and hard working student.

His career began in Budapest, he worked for a telegraph company; Budapest Telephone Exchange. After working for the other companies producing dynamos in Strazburg and Paris; he went to United States. He spent a few months in Europe with other scientists, he was trying to producing engines working with the principles of alternative current (AC). When he realizes that he couldn't be successful in Europe, he went to America. He wanted to meet with Edison he did by using Tesla was hired by Edison to work for his Edison Machine Works.

Tesla's work for Edison began with simple electrical engineering and quickly progressed to solving some of the company's most difficult problems. Tesla was even offered the task of completely redesigning the Edison Company's direct current generators. Tesla claimed that he could redesign Edison's inefficient motor and generators, making an improvement in both service and economy. According to Tesla, Edison remarked, "There's fifty thousand dollars in it for you--if you can do it. After months of work, Tesla fulfilled the task and inquired about payment.

He was thinking of AC motors after resigned. The owner of the company A.K. Brown supported Tesla and built a lab for him to work freely. He formulated the plans of his major works like transformers, engines... In May 1888, he received the patent of AC motors and after he introduced it

well, George Westinghouse offered him a job. Edison started the defamation of Tesla's works. He was killing the animals by giving them AC and invented the electric chair. When a person attached to the chair; various cycles of alternative current passed through the individual's body in order to give fatal damages to the organs including the brain. You will remember this chair from the movie The
