London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
George Bernard Shaw, one of the founders of the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) in 1895, was the first of its 16 Nobel laureates: its most recent was Christopher Antoniou Pissarides in 2010. More than 100 languages are spoken on its compact central London campus, which accommodates some 9,000 students and an academic staff of around 3,000.
Newton on laws and motion; Rutherford splitting the atom; Darwin on evolution; Turing's prototypical computer; Crick and Watson with DNA. Founded in 1209 by Oxford scholars who quit after a dispute with the local citizenry, Cambridge now employs more than 8,500 staff and has over 18,300 students.
