Microbiology

I never see Microbiology as a online class. Has anyone ever taken it online?

I will take Microbiology this summer, not online. I don't know where you're located but the lecture portion was offered online at Broward College in Florida. I opted not to take it online because I'm doing it in a 6 week summer session. Wish me luck! haha

Most nursing programs won't accept an online version of micro, as there is a required lab element. Just a heads up.

I took micro online last semester at a community college and already checked that it will transfer to my university. I really enjoyed it being online whatever I had questions with I youtubed.

Microbiology is so fun! It will stick, trust me! Doing it in person is great. BEWARE! Don't, with your whole heart sniff that plate! Do it from a distance or else it'll really knock you out the first time! haha. I'm a lab tech right now and micro is by far my favorite section to work in.

Phoenix College offers it online. I took it in person but my professor linked in the online lab to our lectures

How do they do online micro with out hands on a microscope, petri dishes, pipettes, and incubators? Just curious.

That would be the lab portion of micro that would have to be taken at the school. Most programs around here don't require the lab part though.

I did mine online. Just passed with a B! There was an online lab that was helpful.
