    The goalThe aim of this course is to introduce students with the different groups of microorganisms (viruses, bacteria, yeast, fungi), to become familiar with their structure and factors that have influence on their growth and reproduction, to learn how to control the growth of microorganisms and their systematics.
    The outcomeAfter completing this course, students will learn the basic techniques used in microbiology laboratories, they will be able to distinguish different groups of microorganisms, to know which microorganisms are pathogenic and how to control their growth and activity
