Tiny microorganisms exist all around us - inhabiting our bodies, the air we inhale, and even the meals we consume. Though microscopic enough for countless to occupy a needle's point, life as we know it would be impossible without them.
Through specialized courses in medical, food, and environmental biotechnology, you'll investigate how we utilize microbial diversity for creating medications, producing food, and cleaning contaminated ecosystems.
During the second year, students can choose to participate in 'Volunteering and Employability,' which may incorporate work experience opportunities. This experience equips you for diverse career paths, including roles demanding expertise in microbiology and biotechnology.
