Join our online masterclass this August to get a taster of our new MSc Microbiology and Infection programme, starting in September at the University of Birmingham Dubai.

Dr Apoorva Bhatt will introduce some of the key topics you can expect to learn about on the course. The event will also have a chance for Q&A so you can ask any questions you may have about the programme.

About the programme

Our MSc Microbiology and Infection programme is set within the context of the Institute of Microbiology and Infection at the University of Birmingham, the largest grouping of microbiologists in the UK, which brings together experts in areas of microbiology from fundamental science of model organisms to translational research on key pathogens of medical and veterinary importance. Students will gain specialist knowledge and insight in key aspects of bacterial infection. The programme also covers the latest research on microbiomes, mycology, antimicrobials and bacterial envelopes, much of which comes from staff members’ own research.

The course will enable you to develop basic abilities and skills on which to build professional capability in a healthcare or related microbiology or biomedical research setting. It will provide you with a foundation in the fundamental molecular microbiology that underlies understanding of infectious disease in healthcare, diagnosis and treatment.
