About the course
The Microbiology curriculum coupled with appropriate electives provides an excellent education base for students moving directly into the job market, for students headed toward medical, dental, medical technology, and veterinary programs, and for students going into graduate programs in the biological sciences. Students can choose from General or Medical Microbiology options and they can choose electives in prokaryotic microbiology, eukaryotic microbiology, biotechnology/genetic engineering, and infectious diseases. As a microbiology major, you will learn everything from genes and proteins to microorganisms to disease mechanisms. You will experience hands-on, lab-based learning in the classroom. Many students in this degree program work as undergraduate researchers in laboratories on campus. This major prepares students for careers in health, research, and laboratory science.
