My Discipline

  • The students in the microbiology program learn a great deal of things related to a variety of field.  The program focuses on the study of molecular organisms and their behaviors and attributes in the realms of diseases, agriculture, medicine and much more.
  • The main fields that Microbiologist go into is research positions but this field allows for a broad choice of positions whether it be an oceanologist or a administrative position at the CDC this discipline allows a wide range of career options. 
  • The biggest thing that drew to this field was the ability to work in a lab while simultaneously making a difference by studying disease finding treatments and cures for those diseases and helping people.
  • There aren't many distinguishable microbiologist that represent the field but the biggest leaders in terms of an organization is the American Society for Microbiologists.
  • The three large scholarly journals that I found were the Annual Review for Microbiology, Trends in Microbiology and FEMS Microbiology Reviews.
