About the course

Microbiology encompasses the study of microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, focusing on their biology as unicellular, multicellular, or acellular entities. It explores concepts like growth, regulation, and interactions among microbes and their environments. This course examines how microorganisms collaborate for survival and how they can be manipulated to advance health outcomes, drawing on insights from world-leading researchers to deliver cutting-edge knowledge.The curriculum begins with a broad foundation in life sciences at Levels 1 and 2, covering core topics including genetics, cell biology, biological organisation, and molecular mechanisms. Students develop practical skills in laboratory techniques, data analysis, and experiment design to prepare for advanced projects. At Levels 3 and 4, the focus shifts to specialised areas like biochemistry, molecular structure, and gene regulation, with flexibility to select modules aligned with personal interests. The course is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology, ensuring recognition of its quality.
