Microbiology - Msc Study

 

General

The microbiology track is intended for students with an undergraduate degree in life sciences or a similar field, who meet the criteria for admission for a master's degree in the Faculty of Life Sciences.

 

Admission

Students wishing to register for studies in the microbiology track must have basic knowledge in different fields of life sciences - biochemistry, microbiology, genetics, and immunology. Applicants wishing to study in the microbiology track must register as master's degree students in one of the departments of the Faculty in which research in the field is being carried out. After the departmental master's degree committee approves admission, the student can register for the microbiology track in that department.

 

Preliminary requirements

Undergraduate courses: microbiology, introduction to molecular biology, and general genetics,.

In addition, one of the four laboratory courses: biochemistry, microbiology, introduction to molecular biology, genetics.

 

Study program

The study program as detailed here is intended for students whose undergraduate degree is in life sciences or similar subjects. Students from other fields will have a personal program put together, according to their previous studies and taking into account their areas of interest.

 

Studies for a master's degree - 30 semester hours

1. Required faculty courses - 10 s/h

Safety in the Laboratory course (during the first year of studies) – no credit
