Our degree programme aims to give you an appreciation of the full range of Microbiology while also allowing you to pursue areas of specific interest.

• During the course of your degree you will study modules such as Virology, Biotechnology, Bacterial disease mechanisms, Microbiomes and Advanced microbiological techniques. You will also have the opportunity to select from a wide range of optional modules.
• The programme is taught by a mixture of lectures, workshops, seminars, tutorials, and laboratory courses, culminating in an extended research project in your third year.
• This is your chance to study an area of cutting edge microbiology in depth, while getting a real taste of life in an active research environment and the opportunity to work alongside members of the Microbiology Research Group and members of other departments, including medical and veterinary microbiologists in the Institute of Infection and Global Health and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.
