AREAS OF CONCENTRATION
Infectious Diseases & Vaccinology
The study of infectious diseases focuses on interactions between infectious agents, their hosts, and the environment that may lead to disease in humans. Infectious Diseases and Vaccinology is a multidisciplinary program. The curriculum is designed to emphasize the biology and molecular biology of host-pathogen interactions; host immune response to infection associated with protection or pathology; the ecology, evolution, and transmission of infectious agents, methods of laboratory-based surveillance and the epidemiology of infectious diseases.

"My experience at the UC Berkeley School of Public Health has been nothing but fantastic. I truly appreciate the small class size that allows for engaging discussions and the many opportunities to get to know faculty outside of the classroom."
