Description
Summary:ABSTRACT The Núcleo de Estudos em Microbiologia Agrícola (NEMA) is an academic-scientific group created by graduate students in the Post Graduate in Agricultural Microbiology in the Department of Microbiology at Universidade Federal de Viçosa, Brazil. NEMA's purposes include promoting and sharing research and knowledge on microbiology in different fields of application. Here, we will comment on our experience in organizing the Summer School on Microbiology and teaching microbiology to undergraduate students during the program. NEMA offers this annual event to disseminate and stimulate knowledge about microbiology for undergraduate students in a participatory, collaborative and interactive way. The summer school on microbiology offered the opportunity for an academic-scientific group to share the mainstream methods and techniques used in microbiological research to undergraduate students.
