Labels:text | human face | man | person OCR: CHURCHILL COLLEGE After retiring as Prime Minister in 1955, Sir Winston Churchill visited the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and realised that there was a need for a similar institution in this country to train scientists and engineers for research and development and to forge links with industry. After talks with governments, academics and American foundations, it was decided to proceed with the foundation of a new college in Cambridge which would be the national and Commonwealth memorial to Churchill and which would bear his name. Today the College has 110 Fellows, 195 postgraduates and 370 undergraduates and, through its distinguished Fellowship, high academic standards and its output of able graduates, makes a major contribution to learning and research.
