One of the best and most interesting things about Hopkins BME is the fact that there are so many different research principal investigators in the program and there are so many different specialties. During my undergraduate curriculum I was able to get exposed to all those different fields. Then, going into my master’s program, I was able to dive into one of these fields and learn the state-of-the-art research that’s going on.
