微生物学学士学位

微生物学是对微生物的特性，特征和相互作用及其对其他生物和环境的影响的研究。在那些对人类福祉和我们对生命过程基本机制的理解有贡献的领域和技术中，微生物学一直并将继续处于最前沿。为学生提供有关微生物基本原理和多样性的广泛知识基础。这些研究强调了微生物学对我们对基本生活过程的基本理解的贡献，并提供了对微生物学如何影响我们日常生活的见解。此外，该知识库还为学生为食品，工业，海洋和药理微生物学的研究生工作和职业做好准备。
As a student in Microbiology, you'll study the properties, characteristics, and interactions of micro-organisms and their effects on other organisms and the environment. Microbiology has been and continues to be at the forefront of those fields and technologies that contribute to human welfare and to our understanding of the basic mechanisms of life processes. The Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology (MCDB) offers the bachelor of science degree in four departmental majorsbiochemistry-molecular biology, cell and developmental biology, microbiology, and pharmacology. In addition, it cooperates with the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Marine Biology in offering the interdepartmental biological sciences major, with both B.A. and B.S. objectives. The department offers graduate programs leading to the degrees of master of arts and doctor of philosophy, with emphasis in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. An interdepartmental graduate program is offered in biomolecular science and engineering, in cooperation with the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Materials, and Mechanical and Environmental Engineering. In addition, a wide range of courses is available to all undergraduates for elective enrollment or for the support of their preparation for degrees in other departments or programs.
