The
California Institute of Technology (commonly referred to as Caltech) is a
private research university located in Pasadena, California, United States.
Caltech has six academic divisions with strong emphases on science and
engineering. Its 124-acre (50 ha) primary campus is located approximately 11 mi
(18 km) northeast of downtown Los Angeles.
Although
founded as a preparatory and vocational school by Amos G. Throop in 1891, the
college attracted influential scientists such as George Ellery Hale, Arthur
Amos Noyes, and Robert Andrews Millikan in the early 20th century. The
vocational and preparatory schools were disbanded and spun off in 1910, and the
college assumed its present name in 1921. In 1934, Caltech was elected to the
Association of American Universities, and the antecedents of NASA's Jet
Propulsion Laboratory, which Caltech continues to manage and operate, were
established between 1936 and 1943 under Theodore von Kármán.
Despite
its small size, 31 Caltech alumni and faculty have won the Nobel Prize and 66
have won the United States National Medal of Science or Technology. There
are 110 faculty members who have been elected to the National Academies. In
addition, numerous faculty members are associated with the Howard Hughes
Medical Institute as well as NASA. Caltech managed $332 million in sponsored
research and $1.77 billion for its endowment in 2011. Caltech was ranked
first in the 2012–2013 Times Higher Education World University Rankings for the
second year running, as well as ranking first in Engineering & Technology
and Physical Sciences. It also has a long standing rivalry with the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
First
year students are required to live on campus and 95% of undergraduates remain
in the on-campus house system. Although Caltech has a strong tradition of
practical jokes and pranks, student life is governed by an honor code which
allows faculty to assign take-home examinations. The Caltech Beavers compete in
13 intercollegiate sports in the NCAA Division III's Southern California
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
