The High School of Electrical Engineering "Nikola Tesla" (Serbian Cyrillic: Електротехничка школа "Никола Тесла", romanizedElektrotehnička škola "Nikola Tesla"; also abbreviated as ETŠ "Nikola Tesla") is a public vocational high school located in Pančevo, Serbia. It educates and trains students in the field of electrical engineering, computer science and informatics. It is named after Nikola Tesla, a Serbian-American inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer and futurist.

History

The high school was established in 1946 and was initially located in a building at Lava Tolstoja 30, where the elementary school "Đura Jakšić" is located in present period. In 1948, ETŠ moved into a building at Đura Jakšić 1, a building next to the Catholic church, and it was located there until 1966. That year, ETŠ moved again to a new building at Braća Jovanovića 89, together with the Chemistry High School. Once again, the school moved its address in 1983 to Maksima Gorkog 7 where it has been located since then.[2]

The school building at Maksima Gorkog 7 was made in 1905 for the Hungarian Royal State Women's Civic School which existed until the end of World War I. During the interwar period the building served for educational purposes and after World War II it had the same purpose until 1983 when it became ETŠ "Nikola Tesla". The school building is, due to its specific appearance characteristic at the time of the creation, under the protection of the state as a cultural monument.[2] Its 50th anniversary occurred in 1996; for the anniversary they published a book about the high school. In 2016, they celebrated their 70th anniversary.[3][4] In 2019, Naftna Industrija Srbije donated money to the school to create new multimedia classrooms and upgrade their computer hardware.[5]

Technical potentials

[edit]

Since the foundation, numerous generations of students and lecturers have passed through the school who have achieved significant results in many competitions and fairs in the field of electrical engineering. The school includes 12 general purpose classrooms, one for teaching activities that are realised with computers, a multimedia classroom, and 10 cabinets, of which 6 are computer rooms and four for electrical measurements, electric machines, electronics, electrical installations, and two workshops for practical classes. The school also has a library with over 7,000 titles.[2] ETŠ publishes its newspaper called "Third Phase".[6][7]

Its professors had been organising an event called "Mathematics from Tesla's backyard" since 2013.[8][9] The point of the event is to promote mathematics through the use of games, origami, optical illusions, and platonic solids.[8][10] Pupils from the city's elementary schools and students from other high schools are common visitors of the event.[11][12]
