Explore the intersection of microbiology and chemistry to understand the fundamental workings of living organisms. Engage in hands-on research alongside professors starting in your second year. Microbiology examines microscopic life forms invisible to the naked eye, including bacteria, archaea, viruses, and single-celled eukaryotes that thrive in diverse environments - from polar ice caps to volcanic vents, from human digestive systems to underground rock layers, and from crystal-clear lakes to contaminated wetlands.
The Chemistry Department honors the University's recognition of the Lkwungen peoples on whose ancestral lands the University of Victoria is located, as well as the Songhees, Esquimalt and WSNE nations whose enduring connections to this territory persist.
