2023 Best Value Microbiology Science & Immunology Schools
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Microbiological Sciences & Immunology School for You
In 2020-2021, 4,566 people earned a degree or certificate in microbiological sciences and immunology, making the major the #136 most popular in the United States.
There are lots of options to pick from today when trying to decide which program is right for you. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.
To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Course Advisor has developed this Best Value Microbiology Science & Immunology Schools ranking. Our analysis looked at 142 schools in the United States to see which programs offered the best value experiences for microbiology students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
