BSc Biological Sciences in Microbiology

3 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Leicester

Program Overview

Microorganisms (viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa) play a crucial role in many of the Earth's physical and biological processes; they help to purify our waste water and clean up pollution. Mankind has used them for thousands of years in the production of foods and drinks but other types can cause new devastating diseases. Microorganisms are the oldest inhabitants of the Earth, yet we have only discovered a small fraction of all the microbes that exist.In this course you will gain a broad appreciation of the biology of organisms of microscopic size and of the mammalian immune response to infection.
