The Discipline of Infectious Diseases and Immunology teaches in the Sydney Medical and Dental Graduate Programmes, as well as the Bachelor of Medical Science and Bachelor of Science degrees.

The Discipline's expertise lies in the area of study of both micro-organisms and immunological responses to infection. Our research programmes aim to contribute directly to improving the health of the Australian and international community by undertaking research targeting current problems, trials of new drugs and vaccines. Many of the research programmes involve formal and informal collaboration with colleagues in other university disciplines, teaching hospitals and Commonwealth and State Departments of Health.

The Discipline welcomes inquiries from prospective post-graduate students with medical, dental, veterinary and general scientific training.
