Not only did they know foreign
scholars and researchers well, they also maintained lively correspondence with
them. In
those years, the Czech electrical-engineering branch gradually established broad

research, forming extensive background professional and spccialised unions

The branch electrical engineering has enjoyed rich tradition the Czech
Lands. The disciplině could also studied the Czech Technical
University Brno (starting the academie year 1902) and also both
German Technical Universities Prague (starting 1881) and also Brno
(1891). The early days electricity generation and eiectrical-engincering groups

As far electrical engineering concerned, the 1860s marked period of
association and integration keeping with developments the whole the
Czech society. the branch of
electricity received its theoretical science its own right. Its members also maintained
intemational contacts, keeping páce with the developments the world virtually

autonomous scientific disciplině the Czech Lands was connected primarily with
an upsurge Czech and German technical schools
