<p>"“I would agree with you on cambridge if we were talking about a couple os decades ago. Nowdays Harvard in terms of research, famous professors and prestige is above cambridge.”</p>
<p>People often think that Cambridge isn’t the academic power it was a few decades ago, but since 1980 Cambridge has 22 Nobel Prize winners, with 8 since 2000. For purposes of comparison, Stanford has 23 winners and Yale has 18…ever…"</p>
<p>It doesn´t work quite like that. University of chicago(1890 ) for example is associated with 81 Nobel Prizes´one less than Cambridge and it is much younger than cambridge…Cambridge is still a powerhouse but it doesn´t have the same prestige, output of research than decades(even centure) ago because now you have much more competion with institutions like Stanford, Harvard, Princeton , Yale, MIT. Another good example is sorbonne, my father friend went there and in his time it was one of the most respected and famous universities in the wolrd..today even my father friends says that it has lost it´s “groove”.</p>
