A Ph.D. in Immunology is a research-oriented program that investigates the immune system, including cellular and molecular mechanisms, immunological responses, and the role of immunity in disease. The curriculum typically lasts 3 to 5 years and covers topics such as immunogenetics, autoimmune disorders, immunotherapy, vaccinations, and cancer immunology. Students do experimental research, using techniques such as flow cytometry, molecular biology, and cell culture to investigate immunological functions and interactions. In general, admission requires a Master's degree in Immunology, Biochemistry, or a closely related subject. Graduates pursue positions in academic research, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, or healthcare, helping to promote immunotherapy and vaccine development.
