Johns Hopkins University Reviews of Master's in Biomedical Engineering

"It is a great institution for higher education and the best for the biomedical field and interdisciplinary fields"

"I am pursing a masters program in Biotechnology with a focus on Bioinformatics. While i am thrilled to be here at JHU, the financial burden has made it very difficult for me to continue being successful in the program. In addition, the student population is not very diverse and it's often difficult for me to connect with other students within and outside of my program. Overall, it is a good program and i am happy to be enrolled in it, but i believe with additional resources, it could be much better"

"The school is great for people who are looking to get into public health. The downfall is that a lot of the teachers aren't very accessible so if you are struggling with coursework, they won't always be open or willing to meet with you in person. The major downfall is the cost of the institution and lack of aid available in the form of scholarships, grants, or tuition waivers. I am in a lot of debt because of this school."

"Pros: Most professors are incredibly interested in ensuring students are mastering the necessary materials. Extremely diverse student body. Free parking. Most faculty is incredibly helpful. Very close to NCI and NIH. Cons: Financial Aid Office. Expensive area to live in. Difficult to plan ahead future class schedules for future semesters."

"The Masters in Biotechnology and Health Science Intensive Program is excellent for students who are determined to attend medical school and are passionate about the sciences, but need to boost their credentials before applying. The Health Sciences Intensive program takes a novel approach to training aspiring physicians via the 360 approach that combines courses in leadership and communication with core advanced level science courses and MCAT preparation."

"I am a full-time employee at Johns Hopkins and I chose to go back to school to pursue a Masters degree in Biotechnology. The classes are very expensive and it has been difficult to afford more than 2 classes a year."

"I am in a MS in Bioinformatics Program. I truly only have good things to say about it. I find it challenging and educational. So, I definitely think it is worth the cost."
