Answer 1

Typically you become a virologist by going to graduate school after you finish your bachelor's degree. About 10 schools in the U.S. offer virology programs. Most often these are doctoral programs. This means you get your Ph.D. but enter the program with only a bachelor's degree. However, some programs also offer master's degrees. Usually it takes two years to earn your master's degree and three to five years to earn your Ph.D."

As a virologist, you can work for private labs, drug companies, university labs, or medical and graduate schools. You can also work for government health agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control. In addition, you can teach biology and virology at colleges and universities.

In virology programs, you take many science and math courses. You study small organisms such as bacteria, and learn how fungi invade cells and molecules. You study different kinds of diseases and how different viruses cause them. In addition, you study how the body fights viruses and what medicines are used to treat them. Depending on your interests, you can study specific diseases and infections. You can even study how certain diseases and disorders, such as cancer and ulcers, might be spread through a virus. You also learn the role of genetics in making some people more prone to viruses than others.
