Microbes come in all shapes and sizes. Some microbes are tiny assassins lying in wait. Some make our Valentine's Day chocolates. Still other microbes are used by scientists to solve some of the world's most challenging scientific problems. We will explore the diversity of this microbial world and examine how microbes influence our lives in positive and negative ways.
Open to Natural Sciences Freshman with a declared major or on the Natural Sciences Exploratory Track.
