Description:

We offer a graduate program leading to the M.Sc. degree. The goal of this program is to prepare students for scientific careers in many areas of microbiology and immunology. Research training focuses on the major topics of the research faculty in the department: molecular biology, microbiology and microbial physiology, virology, genetics, immunology, drug design and parasitology. These research programs provide students with training in the latest experimental approaches in molecular and cellular biology applied to important problems in microbiology and immunology.

Prerequisites:

    Applicants should have a solid educational background in the areas of physical and biological sciences. This background need not include a heavy concentration in microbiology and immunology, as appropriate courses may be taken in this Department during graduate residence. Although it is convenient to have applicants trained in microbiology prior to their arrival, it is recognized that students educated in other institutional programs with widely differing contents may add strength to our own graduate program. Depending on their academic background, students may also be required to take advanced undergraduate courses in immunology, microbial physiology and genetics, or virology.
