Microbiology deals with the study of microbes such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. In simple words, microbiology is a discipline of biology that works with the function, structure, and existence of microscopic organisms. The undergraduate course in microbiology started in 2017 and follows the Choice Based Credit System. The program is carefully designed to give students a strong foundation in theory and applications by focusing on recent developments in microbiology.

Objectives

The Microbiology Society is a membership charity for scientists interested in microbes, their effects, and their practical uses. Microbiology societies in Europe were started with worldwide membership based in universities, industries, hospitals, research institutes, and schools. Our members have a unique depth and breadth of knowledge about the discipline. The Society helps unlock and harness the potential of that knowledge by bringing together and empowering communities that shape the future of microbiology and foster communication within and outside the field.

Why Study Microbiology?

Microbes are everywhere and affect almost all aspects of our lives. We cannot see them, but our world would not function without them. Bacteria, viruses, fungi, protists, archaea, algae, and other microscopic life forms are on us, in us, in air, soil, water, and food. Most do not harm us; many are essential for good health of humans, animals, and the planet. Microbes help keep the planet healthy by recycling waste and supplying nutrients. Agricultural systems would not function without some, while others are harmful pests. Industry uses microbial processes to produce foodstuffs and drugs, benefiting society and creating wealth.

Our Vision

To explore fundamental microbiological techniques to respond to challenges and problems faced by practical approaches in biosciences and various research areas.
