Key Facts

Microorganisms constitute at least 60% of the earth’s biomass, regulating the cycling of soil nutrients and atmospheric gases that sustain life on the planet. Microorganisms naturally produce or can be engineered to produce many of the chemicals, enzymes, and antibiotics that humans rely upon daily. They provide both beneficial and detrimental effects to the human body as they aid in digestion and provide a barrier to infection or overwhelm host defenses to produce disease. In the 21st century opportunities for careers in microbiology are abundant. Choosing microbiology as your major is the place to start.
