<p>Bonanza, JHU’s Mech E program is actually one of its best engineering programs after BME:</p>

<p>It’s ranked #13 in the country vs. UCLA at #18. Looks like a clear decision here for Hopkins. The other engineering programs are still good to outstanding. It’s just BME casts a large shadow. It’s like Wharton at Penn, School of computer science at Carnegie Mellon, or Engineering at MIT (the schools all have other great programs in addition to those tremendous programs or schools). Anyways, you would have individualized attention at Hopkins with absolutely tremendous graduate school placement. Imagine going to a school for four years, doing research on topics you found interesting in classes you could take without worry about enrollment capacities, and then getting a full ride to graduate school at Stanford or MIT for a masters or Ph.D. Quite a common occurrence at Hopkins.</p>
