2023 Best Value Biomedical Engineering Schools in the Great Lakes Region
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Biomedical Engineering School for You
Out of all the majors we analyze each year, biomedical engineering was ranked #57 in the country. In fact 4,252 degrees and certificates were handed out in 2020-2021.
When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. Along with traditional schools that require in-person attendence, you can attend one of many reputable online schools. Some programs even offer a hybrid experience. Alternatively, you may choose a trade school that prepares you to enter the workforce with knowledge in a specific field.
To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Grad Degree Search has created its Best Value Biomedical Engineering Schools in the Great Lakes Region ranking. This report analyzed 25 schools in the Great Lakes Region to see which ones offered the best value programs for bio engineering students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
