Is MIT same as Harvard University?
No, they are not. MIT is the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, which is completely separate from Harvard. They are
both situated in Cambridge, Massachusetts, however.
MIT: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Harvard University
Harvard University and MIT are both in Cambridge, MA (near
boston). Both Private institutions.
Harvard is ranked in many areas higher than MIT, has the most
known endowment in the World with $32billion in 2011, oldest
university in the nation, largest university library in the nation,
and has more students than MIT, Harvard has a bigger campus area
than MIT, participates in IVY LEAGUE athletic and NCAA Division
I.
MIT is more specialized in Scientific and Technological
Research, around $9.9 billion in endowment in 2011, NCAA Division
III.
I would say the two institutions are both great, but when you
compare, you must look at the individual categories of school or
majors.
