Quite possibly the jewel of the undergraduate program, the club has grown over the years and has kept the spirit of scientific inquiry. The club is not only for microbiology majors; it allows people of all disciplines to take part in this organization’s activities. Serving the university community as well as the local community, the club has been in existence since the late 1980's. One of its missions is to educate and raise awareness of microbiological developments affecting all of society, this is accomplished through their Microbiology Awareness Week (MAW). MAW takes place during the semester and involves guest lecturers and events on topics of importance in our fascinating field. Additionally, the club has recently partnered with the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) to continue promoting and advancing the microbial sciences, as well as working to solve the world’s most demanding challenges.
