<p>Hi guys im currently a high school senior and i was going through my options.
I have to choose between UCI and its biomedical Engineering:Pre-med and Cal Poly SLO's Biomedical engineering program.
So I discovered today that Cal Poly SLO has a 4+1 Program. Which means that you would finish your Bachelors and Masters in 5 years!!!
has anyone of you guys heard about this program and if so do you know if its any good as in terms of job opportunities afterward.
Also would the MS in BME be the same as any other MS in BME that you would get from another graduate school. </p>

<p>CAN I PLEASE GET YOUR OPINIONS!</p>

<p>I know nothing about these two programs. The 4+1 sounds interesting, but I tend to think as most engineering majors as a 5 year degree and would worry that it’s really a 5+1 in all actuality. SLO is a great school so I can’t see the MS being down graded compared to any other school. For BE you should at least get a masters if you expect a job after college, and preferably a PhD. However, a BS is fine if you intend to get go pre-med, in which case UCI would be the better choice.</p>
