Answer 1

My alma mater has a great science program (I'm in a neuroscience ph.d program) --> Bucknell University.  Other colleges I know that have good programs are Johns Hopkins, Pitt (University of Pittsburgh), Rice, UCSD (great research department), University of Michigan Ann Arbor (amazing numbers of publications every year), Michigan State (not quite as well-known, but adequate for an undergrad), University of Maryland College Park, UCLA, Brown, Colgate, Brandeis (my first PI did her undergrad there), Northwestern, and Duke.  That's just some suggestions.

Answer 2

Michigan State University
