Biological Engineering vs. Mechanical Engineering/BME Minor

If someone, like myself, were interested in the medical side of engineering, which route would be better? I hate learning about the environmental side of biology (okay, maybe hate is a strong word…strongly dislike). Thus, would biological engineering contain too much of that? Would BioE be in the college of agriculture or engineering? I know Cornell recommends a traditional route with a BME minor, but I was just wondering if an alternative route was available. Thanks!
