Harvard Bioengineering (SEAS) strength vs Berkeley EECS

[handson123]

Does anybody know if Harvard Bioengineering ( in SEAS, not the HST program) is a strong program? I am deciding between that and Berkeley EECS. I am interested in applying EE to biomedical problems. Berkeley seems like a nicer place to live but the stipend for TA first year is so low $16000 vs Harvard's $22000 ( all for nine months). is it easy to transfer from SEAS Bioengineering to HST (harvard-mit health science technology)? I applied there but got rejected and admitted to harvard seas instead.
