微生物学是对生命体的研究，这些生命体太小而无法用肉眼看到，包括细菌，真菌和病毒。这些微生物是我们了解地球上生命的关键-从人类和动物疾病到更好的食品生产和微生物参与全球循环。微生物学研究需要免疫学，遗传学，生物化学和细胞生物学等多个领域的专业知识，我们将在整个学位课程中为您提供培训。您将研究当今影响人类的一系列微生物学主题，例如细菌对抗生素的抗性，微生物在食品生产和农业生物技术中的应用以及微生物如何引起疾病。我们将重点放在微生物和分子技术的实践和分析培训上，使您有能力从事科学和健康研究以及其他领域的广泛未来
Microbiology is the study of organisms too small to be visible with the naked eye, including bacteria, fungi and viruses. Your course will cover an area of science fundamental to the understanding of life on this planet from human and animal disease, better food production to microbial involvement in global cycles.<br><br>You will study a range of microbiological topics with a biomedical focus, such as bacterial resistance to antibiotics, the use of microbes in biotechnology, and how new pathogens, such as the cause of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), emerge and cause disease. These topics are at the heart of many global challenges and it is critical that the next generation of expert scientists are trained in these areas. You will develop your specialist knowledge, whilst building on the foundations of microbiology, with areas such as immunology, genetics, biochemistry and cell biology.<br><br>Work placement- Optional<br>Study abroad- Optional
