I am a licensed microbiologist here in the Philippines and I've been working for almost 2 years now as a Quality Control Microbiologist in a pharmaceutical manufacturing laboratory and feels that I should go on to pursue higher learning. However I am stuck with the dilemma of which track should I pursue.
I've narrowed down my choices to three programs from three different but related schools. Hopefully, I can decide on it early and start going back to school by the next year. I am considering three programs but is quite confused which of the three should really be the "it" course. I would really appreciate it if you can give me your feedbacks.
a. Master of Science in Public Health major in Medical Microbiology (specializing in virology and immunology)- University of the Philippines, Manila.
b. Master of Science in Microbiology (with units in management)- University of the Philippines, Los Banos, Laguna
c. Master of Science in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology- University of the Philippines, Diliman.
Thank you in advance and have a great day to all of you. Cheers!
I think you better if you choose the first program, because it is relate with the work you are involved with, this is will increase your knowledge and ability in developing drugs that relate to immunity. In addition, is still a little expert in the field of immunology, so, this becomes an opportunity for you to be an expert in immunology.
good luck!
It is gud to persue immunology but you should have known about molecular biology to master immunology but it might be easier for you to understand it relating to microbial and human interactions, but the catch is that to learn about drug development, design and drug in vivo interactions a little amount of mol bio is needed. Mol bio and Biotech is a personal favourite and it covers a wide range of subjects. Since its medical microbiology the basics definitely would be touched upon.
It is best to ask the research fellows in the particular universities how the course is structured and what sort of research interests is being looked up in the above said universities.
