<p>MIT has more NAE members because MIT is bigger. Stanford’s engineering school has 240 faculty memebrs, while MIT has 370 faculty members. Stanford also has less faculty members in computer science than MIT.</p>

<p>I think in terms of the achievements in academia, MIT and Stanford are comparable. But if you count the # of publications, MIT should have more because of its bigger size. But Stanford’s contributions to IT industry through Silicon Valley are unmatched.</p>
