Dear Malavika,

Microbiology is the i n depth study of microbes and other living organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye . Some components of a course in Microbiology would be Microbial Biology, Microbial Genetics, Immunology, Biochemistry, and so on. It may make for an encouraging career option for those who are deeply interested in these subjects.

The job profiles usually offered to a person with a degree in Microbiology would be those in Research (Food Industry, Chemical Industry, Pharmaceutical Industry, etc.) and Academics. These would require one to complete their Master's and subsequently a Ph.D in the subject.

In India, a career in Research might take some time to build up in terms of monetary returns.

Hope this helped.

Please feel free to reach out in case you have any further queries.

All the Best!
