Are you interested in:

  • Studying, preventing and controlling infectious disease?
  • Tracking down agents of infectious disease?
  • Prevention and treatment of potential bioterrorist attacks?
  • Production of new products through biotechnology?

If so, Microbiology may be the subject for you. Microbiology is a diverse discipline with almost limitless applications in health, industry, biotechnology, environmental science, and basic research. With the increase in emerging infectious disease and antibiotic resistance, the threat of bioterrorism, the rapid advance in biotechnology, and numerous environmental problems, microbiologists are in higher demand than ever. Microbiology majors from UW-La Crosse have obtained jobs in:

  • Large pharmaceutical and chemical companies to small biotechnology firms
  • Hospital and Public health laboratories
  • Food production and fermentation industries
  • Numerous biotechnology companies
  • Medical diagnostic companies
  • Research laboratories at Universities, government agencies, and medical centers
  • Environmental testing laboratories and bioremediation companies

A microbiology major is also excellent preparation for medical, veterinary and other professional schools, and graduate school in any of the biological sciences.
