The founding background of Cambridge University
Cambridge University was founded in A.D. 1209 by a group of teachers who escaped from Oxford University to escape the war. King Henry III granted Cambridge University the monopoly of teaching in 123 1. Cambridge University and Oxford University are both the best universities in Britain. Because these two ancient universities are similar in many ways, they are usually called "Oxford, Oxford and Cambridge" ("Niu Jian"). Since 1904, 92 Nobel Prize winners have come from this school (in fact, the number of people working or teaching in this school may be more than 100). Because the official data of Cambridge University depends on whether students or teachers are members of the college (Membership/Fellowship). In addition, each university has a different definition of the calculation principle of this number. For example, some universities do not count people from relevant institutions after winning the prize, and some are still counting; Some teachers who have been teaching in school for less than 1 year are not counted, but others still regard them as winners associated with the school. So different websites (including official website) will give different information. Cambridge is located in Cambridgeshire, 50 miles north of London. Cambridgeshire itself is a small English town with about 654.38 million residents. There is a river in this town called "Jianhe" (Jianhe is also translated as "He Kang"). Jianhe is a small river winding from north to south. On both sides of Jianhe River, the scenery is beautiful and the grass is lush. There are many bridges with exquisite design and beautiful shapes, among which the most famous ones are Math Bridge, Gray Bridge and Sigh Bridge, hence the name Cambridge. Cambridge University itself has no designated campus, no walls and no school card. The vast majority of colleges, research institutes, libraries and laboratories are built on both sides of Jianhe River in Cambridge Town, in different locations in the town.
