Does anyone have the 2008 undergrad rankings for Biomedical/Biomedical Engineering?

Like the top 10 or top 20? I'm very curious to know but I don't want to dish out money for the premium online edition or whatever >_>

You can't really rate the undergraduate department. You can rate the faculty, and resources available, which stem from the graduate ranking. I know that Johns Hopkins has probably the best graduate department for Bioe, with UCSD close behind. Johns Hopkins get better funded for their research. It is safe to say that the faculty of both is top notch. Duke also has a good program. I believe MIT has the largest Bioe laboratory.

1) Johns Hopkins

everyone else.

This is a category where JHU clearly provides, hand-over-fist, the best team-oriented undergraduate education for it's biomedical engineers. This is clearly the most outstanding, distinctive and challenging undergraduate BME program.

Case is great for financial aid, especially for females -- and I have heard good things about their program.
