- While you read
Marie Curie was born in Warsaw on November 7th,
1867. She received general education in local schools and
some scientific training from her father.
As a brilliant and mature student, Marie Curie
harboured the dream of scientific career, which was
impossible for a woman at that time. To save money for a
study tour abroad, she had to work as a private tutor, and
her studies were interrupted.
- Finally, in 1891, Marie, with very little money to
live on, went to Paris to realise her dream at the
Sorbonne. In spite of her difficult living conditions, she
worked extremely hard. She earned a degree in Physics
with flying colours, and went on to take another degree in
Mathematics. She met Pierre Curie in the school of
Physics in 1894 and a year later they got married. From
then on, they worked together on their research. In 1903,
Marie became the first woman to receive a PhD from the
Sorbonne.
- After the tragic death of Pierre Curie in 1906, she
took up the position which her husband had obtained at
the Sorbonne. Thus, she was the first woman in France to
be a university professor. Soon after, she was awarded a
Nobel Prize in Chemistry for determining the atomic
weight of radium. But her real joy was “easing human
suffering”. The founding of the Radium Institute in 1914
made her humanitarian wish come true.
