Despite being regarded as the “Father of Electrical Engineering” and making groundbreaking contributions to the field of electromagnetism and electrochemistry, Faraday received only a basic education and was largely self-taught. He began his career as a bookbinder’s apprentice and developed his interest in science by reading books on the subject. Faraday’s incredible intellectual curiosity and determination led him to conduct groundbreaking experiments and discover fundamental principles in electricity and magnetism, such as electromagnetic induction and Faraday’s laws of electrolysis. His achievements stand as a testament to the power of self-directed learning and passion for science.
