What is the best Ivy League School for a Bachelor’s in Engineering? How about Biology? Lastly, which Ivy League has the best combination of a Biology and Engineering program?
What is the Best Ivy League in Engineering or Biology?
Before I answer your actual question, I would just like you to know that none of the commonly accepted top ten schools in Engineering is in the Ivy League, and not all Ivy League schools are academically rigorous. They are just a sports conference in the NCAA.
Ok, so for Engineering, the top Ivies are Cornell and Princeton (if you're thinking of more than just the Ivies, the top 3 in the nation are MIT, Stanford, and Berkeley). For Biology, it's undeniably Harvard. The Harvard med school provides so many benefits for undergrads. But again, Stanford beats Harvard in the nation, and Harvard is itself tied with MIT and Berkeley.
Reply:I know its not Brown or Dartmouth - I would think it is probably Cornell with the possibility of Princeton.
Good Luck!!!
Reply:The best biomedical and biomolecular engineering programs reside however at, gasp, a non-ivy league school--Johns Hopkins. So, there ya go.
Reply:First of all, you obviously do not know what you're talking about--because ALL the Ivy League schools are academically challenging. And, (and they say it themselves) it goes without saying, that the Ivy Leauge is more than an atheletic league...
Yes, it is true that the original purpose of the Ivy League was to create an atheletic league. But, I mean get serious. If the Ivy League were simply a mere atheletic league, its sports teams would be doing much better on the national level and it would not be as socially accepted as it is now.
And for all those who say "why waste money on an Ivy League Education when you can go to an 'equally' good state or private school?" While it might be true that you can get a similar education at a non-Ivy League school, a diploma from an Ivy League school, on the surface, means a lot more and is a lore more impressive to employers.
