Student review [#37627] for Microbiology
at Colorado State University

Microbiological RULES! Microbiology is a very difficult subject to find in schools, and when I found schools that had it, it was hard to find programs that worked well. CSU has excellent professors who teach the courses, and nearly all of the professors have done some form of major research or worked in the microbiology industry for years before coming to the school to teach or consult. The advisors are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in deciding which course and plan is right for you and the pace you want to follow during your studies. I love my major, it’s a unique major, and CSU does a great job of making sure it produces some of the highest performing graduates it can get. The workload is more than manageable and I think it’s a normal amount for a college course. There are so many job and internship opportunities. We get emails with internship opportunities all the time and the advisors and deans really want to help students get internships if they can. These internships take place not only across the country, but across the world. There are also many research jobs on campus. In fact, I started working in a research lab in October, and I’m just a novice. You almost always need people to work in the labs and lab research jobs can be guaranteed almost every 4 years if you like the principal investigator and he likes you. This is arguably one of the best microbiology programs in the nation, and it’s just awesome.
