The records for the North Carolina State University Department of Microbiology contain general administrative files, department head correspondence, financial records, departmental reviews, annual reports, information about faculty research projects, information about graduate fellowships and assistantships, and a large amount of grant and trust fund records. Included is information about research at the Agricultural Experiment Station, research done with the Peanut Collaborative Research Support Program (CRSP), records from the Institute of Biological Sciences, information about Sweet Acidophilus Milk research, and Gardner Hall renovation plans. Courses in bacteriology have been offered at North Carolina State University since 1894-1895, when one course was offered through the Department of Horticulture, Aboriculture, and Botany. In the following decades, the program gradually expanded as several new courses were added. During the 1950s bacteriology began to establish a larger presence at North Carolina State College. Increased faculty support led to more research, course offerings, and funding. The program continued to grow with the approval of a doctoral degree in 1961, and the Department of Microbiology was officially established in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in 1965. As of 2010, the Department of Microbiology employs over fifteen faculty members and enrolls over 35 graduate students. It offers a doctoral degree, three Master's degrees, and an undergraduate major and minor.
