What are some of the best Biomedical/Bioengineering Programs, besides the obvious ones?

Besides the obvious answers - Duke, JHU, GaTech, Stanford, MIT, UC Berkeley, UMichigan, Rice, Northwestern, etc - what are some of the nations top Bioengineering/Biomedical programs. I feel like my list is a little too limited in number.

What is your goal for your degree? If you are thinking med school or grad school in the bio-sciences, then chances are that at least one of your own home state public universities has a decent undergrad program. Check those out.

In our area Case Western and U Rochester would be making the list.

@insanedreamer Yeah, I’ve been really considering Renesselar. Their program seems very strong. Being the oldest tech institute in the nation, I’m surprised I’ve never heard of them before a month ago.

@IsaacTheFuture they’re unknown to the average person, but well known and highly respected in industry (which is what matters). My D goes there. Smart and nerdy student body, strong academics.

Clemson University.

Perhaps these lists of undergraduate and graduate programs mention some other schools you could investigate:
