Microbiology (Foundation)

Microorganisms can cause a variety of diseases, and yet we could not survive without them. The microbiologist has a major influence on the production of many foods and drinks – in production of fermentation products and the prevention of food spoilage. During this course, you will learn how these fascinating organisms have such a vital role in our lives. We use an integrated approach to look at microbiology at the whole organism and molecular level. Our courses have a strong practical component, where you will have the opportunity to develop excellent laboratory skills in our modern laboratories.
