I’m interested in studying biomedical engineering undergrad… to possibly go on to med school.<br>
my college options include
Tulane with a 22,000 scholarship
George Washington with a full tuition scholarship
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
any insight?<br>
anything you want to tell me about either of those schools?<br>
any comments would be great!<br>
thanks.
<p>You can't beat Tulane in terms of engineering</p>
<p>You need some advice from a grad student or a professional in the field for this answer. As you know, biomed engineering is not just "engineering". It's such a specialized field, and a field that is in such a state of fast evolution, that parents out of the field, or hs students, just aren't equipped to know which school is currently strong.</p>
<p>"George Washington with a full tuition scholarship"</p>
<p>That should answer your question. GW is a great school, with a smaller and more personable engineering departement. DC is also a great college town for night-life and internships.</p>
<p>yes, the full tuition scholarship is very appealing.</p>
<p>well, I was trying to be absolutely accurate and unbiased. But if you take a look at GW's website, you will see what they'be been doing in the field of biomedical engineering. In fact, one of their students recently was on all the national news programs with a biomed invention. This is one of the fields GW focuses on. It's just that I don't know that much about Tulane, except that I'll bet it's pretty hot in the summer !</p>
<p>yeah, i see what you are saying hayden, about getting the opinions from a grad student. good to know that GW focuses on bme.</p>
