<p>Who has the best ones? What resources can guide me?</p>
<p>UCSD, Berkeley, Stanford, MIT, Johns Hopkins, Washington Uni in St Loius, etc.</p>
<p>Duke, U Penn, BU, Rice, Northwestern...</p>
<p>Boston University
Case Western Reserve University
Duke University
Georgia Institute of Technology
Johns Hopkins University
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Northwestern University
Rice University
Stanford University
University of California-Berkeley
University of California-San Diego
University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
University of Pennsylvania
University of Virginia
University of Washington
Washington University-St Louis</p>
<p>JHUs program is highly selective..they only accept 100 people/year and you have to apply to the program specifically on the undergrad app to get in. I think it is also the #1 program. But all the other schools mentioned have good programs as well.</p>
<p>Gourman ranking for undergraduate biomedical engineering follows:
Johns Hopkins
U Penn
Brown
Duke
Northwestern
Tulane
Case Western
Texas A&M
RPI
Marquette [this is a surprise entry...]
UC San Diego
Louisiana Tech
Boston U
U Iowa
Arizona State
U Illinois Chicago</p>
<p>Collegehelp, the Gourman rankings are over 10 years old. Since then, programs such as Cal, Michigan and WUSTL have improved dramatically.</p>
<p>You may be right, Alexandre. I don't know. Cal and Michigan are both listed in the Gourman Report for GRADUATE programs, but not undergraduate. WUSTL isn't listed anywhere.</p>

<p>Flying under the radar : WPI.</p>
<p>Excellent reputation in the biotech companies around Boston, currently developing a new biotech center adjacent to the campus (thus not inhibiting use of existing facilities) that will be coming on line over the next year or so.</p>
<p>Another program to watch might be U of Rochester which has a new biomedical engineering building and a very strong base in biology and medical science to build on.</p>
<p>Hopkins all the way in this case... if you can get an offer.</p>
