理学学士（荣誉）微生物学

微生物学是对诸如细菌，病毒和寄生虫之类的微生物的研究，包括其在疾病中的鉴定，传播和与宿主的相互作用。随着抗菌素耐药性（AMR）威胁的日益严重，在这一领域中增强知识和了解对于应对人类和动物健康面临的新出现的全球挑战至关重要。该大学拥有世界一流的研究中心，包括MRC病毒研究中心和惠康分子寄生虫学中心。感染，免疫和炎症研究所的世界级科学家和临床医生将教您。感染与免疫学会提供了一个很好的机会，可以结交朋友，进行社交并成为我们科学界的一部分。您将在克莱德峡湾米尔波特的海洋生物学站接受流行病学方面的实践培训。<br>
The Microbiology programme provides a comprehensive overview of modern research into bacteria, viruses and parasites. It covers both infectious disease and the wider context in which microorganisms exist. Topics include clinical and veterinary pathogens, how infectious diseases can be controlled by the immune system and by pharmaceutical interventions, molecular and cellular principles of microbiology, and environmental and industrial microbiology. You will have the opportunity to include a specialisation in Bacteriology, Parasitology or Virology. In the final year students can choose from a range of specialised advanced courses and undertake a research project under supervision from within the University or an external institution. These projects include working in a research laboratory, undertaking public engagement or researching a dissertation topic. You'll receive practical training in aspects of epidemiology at the Marine Biology Station at Millport in the Firth of Clyde. Microbiology can be taken as an MSci, which includes an additional placement year between year 3 and the final year of the degree. This is normally spent doing research in industry or a research institute, in the UK or overseas, and often attracts a modest salary.Our graduates are employed in many different industries including diagnostic and research laboratories for public health and in hospitals, and in companies in areas including food, brewing, petroleum, water and aquaculture. Others choose to progress to postgraduate study andor follow research careers in academia or pharmaceutical industries. Some go on to do medicine or teaching. Our graduates are equipped with a flexible, broad-based training that takes them in many directions. The final-year options provide ample opportunity for specialisation towards your chosen career.
