The training of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who will become the next generation of microbiologists and immunologists is a major part of the mission of the Department of Microbiology & Immunology. The Department offers Master's and Doctoral Programs in Microbiology & Immunology, while also providing courses for Dental, Medical and undergraduate students. We also have a strong affiliation with the Graduate Program in Immunology.
