Branch of Microbiology

The Branch of Microbiology in the College of Veterinary Medicine aims to teach the sciences of microbiology and parasitology according to unified scientific curricula for all colleges of veterinary medicine in the country, at undergraduate, master's and doctoral levels, as well as to carry out research related to these sciences, in order to prepare veterinarians and scientific researchers in this field of knowledge .

Mission :

-1 – To work diligently to give third-stage students sufficient information in all the specialisations of microbiology, including pathogenic bacteria, viruses and fungi that infect animals and humans, and the latest developments in this field, so that it serves as an introduction to the other sciences of the following years, including infectious diseases, poultry diseases and zoonotic diseases
2 - To give students the up-to-date information needed in the immunology of microorganisms and how to combat them with antimicrobials and vaccines
3 – - To give the veterinarian a role in working in the fields of laboratories, public health and veterinary vaccines
Objectives :
1 – - To keep pace with developments in microbiology and immunology by updating curricula and encouraging teaching staff to keep up with developments in molecular biology and genetic engineering
- 2 – To upgrade the microbiology laboratories and equip them with the latest devices and tools for the diagnosis of microorganisms
Vision: The Branch of Microbiology aspires to be a scientific and research resource, like the other sciences in the College of Veterinary Medicine, providing sufficient information and knowledge in the sciences of microbiology, including pathogenic bacteria, viruses, fungi and immunology, working to raise the level of undergraduate and postgraduate students in diagnosing the pathogens that devastate livestock and in controlling them.
