In this specialisation, you will work on improving health and environment, by studying, applying, and manipulating microorganisms. You will study the interface between fundamental and applied ecology and medical microbiology. As a Master’s student you will be part of a Microbiology research department that is at the forefront in the areas of environmental, medical, and molecular microbiology.
Microbiology at Radboud University focuses on the functioning of microorganisms and their potential for improving our health and the environment. Think of applications in energy-efficient societal waste processing or next generation vaccines. As the programme contains more than one year of academic research, you will gain extensive hands-on experience in microbial research, for example in the leading research department of Prof. Mike Jetten.
