Microbiology is the study of microorganisms and is a foundation for infectious diseases, public health, and other health-related fields. This minor integrates biology, genetics, and basic microbiology coursework and is enhanced by additional coursework in molecular biology and upper-level microbiology (such as virology, public health, immunology, and epidemiology). This minor is useful for students interested in pharmacy, medicine, public health, other pre-health professions, and those with a particular interest in the general field of microbiology.
