[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is a junior interested in bio or biomedical engineering.  I see a lot of posts saying “go to state school and save money for grad school”, but do most engineers go to grad school?  DD really likes JHU (if she can get in), but wondering if it’s worth the money instead if state school.[/quote]

If you're in MD, UMD is a great engineering school. If your kid gets in, s/he should go. My DS didn't get in. She did well as an undergrad elsewhere, and is now in a top grad engineering program. But I think she might have been working now and skipped grad school if she'd gotten into UMD. Her undergrad college didn't offer engineering. [/quote]

Wasn't aware you could go to graduate engineering school without having studied engineering as an undergrad.  What did your DS study in college?[/quote]
Not PP.  But, a physics major can easily handle engineering for grad school.  [/quote]

I doubt that. LOL. [/quote]
My son is in year 3 of a PhD program in engineering at University of Michigan after majoring in physics at a SLAC and it has been pretty seamless.[/quote]
