California Institute of Technology - "The California Institute of Technology
(Caltech) is a private research university in Pasadena, California. The
university is known for its strength in science and engineering, and is among a
small group of institutes of technology in the United States which is primarily
devoted to the instruction of pure and applied sciences. Caltech is ranked among
the best academic institutions in the world and is among the most selective in
the U.S. Caltech was founded as a preparatory and vocational school by Amos G.
Throop in 1891 and began attracting 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 1920.” Source:
