Hello, I have got acceptance in Bioengineering-Bioinformatics at UCSD(Warren college). I also have acceptance from Univ Of Washington and UCI (biomedical engineering). People I have reached out, suggest that I should pick UCSD because of its ranking. Does school ranking that important?
Also Bioengineering-Bioinformatics has around 4 CS courses. Is it a good idea to take more CS courses ( not sure if its possible) to increase your chances for internship/job?
I want to try for med school, but I know its pretty tough to get it, and so want to ensure I have other options open.
I know CS major is hot for jobs. How does bioengineering-Bioinformatics compare from job opportunities perspectives.
Any popular minor folks with this major go for in UCSD or it in itself is too challenging?
