Institution
Section overview
Description
Our institute offers lectures on basic microbiology, specific microbiology for relevant pathogens and mycology as well as on basic knowledge and special german rights for epizootics throughout the year. Furthermore we offer a practical training course to give students the chance to actually see what they learned in theory and teach them general skills for diagnostic work at the same time. Our institute cooperates intensely with different national and international, academic and non-academic research programmes. This offers especially doctoral students and PhD students the chance to get a high-level research training.
