CONTRIBUTION

 

1. He was a first man who discussed in detail about the luminous, non-luminous and transparent bodies.
2. He also gave the structure and working of eyes.
3. He gave us many laws of reflection and wrote many books about the reflection of light.
4. He also first time gave the idea that whenever the ray of light is incident on an object some of the incident rays are reflected from the object and enter the eyes consequently the object becomes visible to the eyes which is accepted the scientific view.

 

 

2. AL-BERUNI

CONTRIBUTION

 

LAI-Khwarizmi was one of the greatest mathematicians ever lived. He was the founder of several branches and basic concepts of mathematics. He is also famous as an astronomer and geographer.

2. He developed in detail trigonometric tables containing the sine functions, which were later extrapolated to tangent functions.
3. Al-Khwarizmi also developed the calculus of two errors, which led him to the concept of differentiation. He also refined the geometric representation of conic sections.
4. Al-Khwarizmi wrote a book on astronomical tables. Several of his books were translated into Latin in the early l2th century by Adelard of Bath and Gerard of Cremona. The treatises on Arithmetic, Kitab al-Jam’a waI-Tafreeq biI Hisab al-Hindi, and the one on Algebra, Al-Maqala fi Hisab-al J abr wa-aI-Muqabilah, are known only from Latin translations.
5. He was a first man who introduce the decimal system in mathematics.

 

Note: Of course, the advantage, which is spoken first of all, is honing the knowledge of a foreign language. Now in the world everyone is talking about the fact that without knowing a foreign language anywhere. And no courses will replace you full immersion in the language, where everyone speaks it and everything is written on it – signs, timetables, notes, pointers, etc. Another of the most popular advantages is the acquisition of many friends and acquaintances from around the world. But after all, all these friends and acquaintances can become very useful contacts for establishing business contacts. Also, almost always, foreign universities offer successful students an internship in companies with world names, such as Cicso, Nestle Founadtion, British Petroleum, etc. And some countries can offer work in their enterprises. And later, citizenship can be obtained. During the study, students are provided with wonderful conditions not only for living, but also for leisure and for the study itself – laboratories equipped with the latest technology, spacious bright classrooms, free libraries. Educational institutions create all conditions for students to want to learn.
