在这里学什么？

Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, their activities, and applications. Although small in size, microorganisms play an enormous role in many areas of society including human health and disease, food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, agriculture, and the environment. As a result of the widespread importance and application of microbiology, career opportunities are almost limitless. There are more microbiologists than any other type of biologist and the American Society for Microbiology is the oldest and largest single life science membership organization in the world.

The curriculum is based on the recommendations from the American Society for Microbiology, and is designed to ensure that graduates gain excellent, state-of-the-art experience in microbiology. After completing a core of microbiology courses, students may choose electives that allow them to specialize. A large number of electives are available in areas of virology, parasitology, mycology, molecular biology, bioinformatics, food and industrial microbiology, environmental microbiology, plant microbiology, and research. Students may also elect a biomedical, environmental science, or business concentration, each with slightly different curricula. A particular emphasis of the UWL microbiology major is laboratory competence. Faculty have received more than one million dollars in educational grants to ensure that teaching laboratories contain the latest equipment.
