However, if a particular field has always captivated you, you can choose it from the start.


Major: Microbiology
Microbiology is the study of microorganisms, their diversity and structure, molecular biology, and how they interact with humans and other living organisms in both harmful and beneficial ways.

Microbiology influences a wide range of areas, including human and animal health, the environment, food technology and safety, and the biotechnology industry. Today, like no other time in history, the importance of microorganisms can be seen from the impact of infectious diseases throughout the world, the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance, and the use of microorganisms to provide alternative sources of fuel.

In studying this major, you will learn about the range and diversity of microorganisms within the world, including bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites that inhabit the natural environment, as well as those that colonise human and animal hosts. You will develop an understanding of core microbiological and molecular biological technical principles and methods, and utilise them in laboratory settings.
