我们系是人文学院中规模最大的系之一，拥有1400多名学生。我们提供学士学位课程，健康前专业课程，教学许可课程，未成年人，硕士学位，生物技术证书和博士学位。我们为随时为学生提供并为他们提供服务而感到自豪支持他们需要在自己领域中脱颖而出。通过较小的班级和实验室规模，我们的教职员工和学生通常都是名副其实的。此外，学生与教师一起从事当前和创新的研究项目，在获得学位的同时获得实践经验。微生物是地球生命各个方面的重要组成部分。它们无处不在，但它们太小了，无法用肉眼看到。只有通过微生物学领域的发展，我们才学会了如何研究
Microorganisms are a vital part of every aspect of life on our planet. They are everywhere, and yet they are far too small to see with the human eye. It is only through the development of the field of microbiology that we have learned how to study microorganisms to advance health initiatives across the world. As a microbiology student at Ball State, you will study bacteria, archaea, viruses, fungi, algae, and other microbes in classroom and laboratory settings. You will also learn about microorganisms in a medical context by studying topics like pathology, immunology, and medical mycology. Our program prepares graduates to seek out careers in the vital microbiology, medical and biotechnology industries, and your education serves as a prerequisite for admission into graduate school, medical school or other health professions programs to study these topics at a deeper level.
