Microbiology is the scientific study of all organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This includes bacteria, viruses, archaea, fungi, protists, and some microscopic algae. Also known as ‘microbes’, these organisms are crucial in many of the planet’s vital processes, such as nutrient cycling, photosynthesis, biogeochemical cycles, and biodegradation.

The Microbiology Diploma Course introduces you to these microorganisms, how they are studied and classified, and the difference they are making to current global challenges.
