理学学士（荣誉）微生物学

微生物学是在蛋白质和基因水平（分子生物学），细胞水平（细胞生物学和生理学）以及微生物群落水平上研究细菌，酵母和病毒。微生物学在科学，医学，工业和社会中日益重要，因为我们一方面寻求在我们的医院和社区中控制微生物病原体，另一方面，我们在生物技术行业中利用越来越广泛的微生物。因此，微生物学也是一门应用科学，它通过研究病原体，其流行病学和对抗生素的耐药性来帮助健康和医学。微生物还广泛用于农业，食品和环境行业，例如在溢油清理中。该学位为您提供了在工业，商业或研究环境中工作一年的机会，并在五年后以MSci（本科硕士学
Microbiology is the study of bacteria, yeasts and viruses at the level of protein and gene (molecular biology), at the level of the cell (cell biology and physiology), and at the level of the microbial community.<br>Microbiology is of growing importance in science, medicine, industry and society, as we seek on the one hand to control microbial pathogens in our hospitals and communities, while on the other, making use of an ever broader range of microorganisms in biotechnology industries. Microbiology is therefore also an applied science, helping health and medicine through the study of pathogens, their epidemiology, and resistance to antibiotics. Microorganisms are also widely used in the agriculture, food and environment industries, for instance in oil spill clean-up.<br>Through this degree programme, you will develop knowledge and understanding of microbiology at the molecular, cellular and systems levels. Building on that base, you will gain an in depth understanding of selected aspects of Microbiology that reflect the research expertise and strengths within the School, ensuring you are taught by leaders in a particular research field.
