Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, known as microorganisms or microbes, that are usually invisible to the naked eye. These microbes include bacteria, algae, protozoa, fungi, viruses, and prions, are critical to all aspects of life on our planet. Microbiology is diverse, which is reflected in sub-disciplines such as medical, veterinary, environmental, food and industrial microbiology.
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of microbiology to our society. Several modern scientific disciplines, including genetic engineering, genomics, bioinformatics, microbial biotechnology, immunology, and molecular biology, originated from classical microbiology. Therefore, these disciplines form an integral part of the teaching and research of microbiology at TUS. An industrial placement during the third year of the programme provides an opportunity for students to gain valuable real-world experience and establish direct links with the industry.
