Beschreibung des Programms

Microbiology is the study of bacteria, fungi, algae, protozoa, and viruses, and is of immense importance in relation to the environment, agriculture and food, biomedical sciences, and biotechnology. Graduates in microbiology are therefore highly sought after in these fields. Microbiology is very central to many aspects of the biological sciences, from pure research to diverse industrial, medical, and environmental applications.

Microorganisms play major roles in the diseases of man, animals, and plants. Microbiologists have been central to their diagnosis and in combating such diseases through the discovery of effective therapies.

Microorganisms also play a central role in the biosphere, through global environmental processes and the recycling of elements and waste products

In biotechnology and synthetic biology, microbes are also crucial in the manufacture of beverages, pharmaceuticals, biofuels, and many other useful products.
