Course Overview
Students in Entomology represent a range of experiences and interests, with varied backgrounds from biology, chemistry, zoology, entomology, meteorology, ecology and botany programs to name a few. You will find an exceptional faculty that offer an unequaled range of research expertise and breadth within our focus areas. The strength of our research resides in four main program themes: Chemical Ecology, Ecological Applications, Disease Biology and Ecology and Pollinator Biology and Ecology. Many opportunities are available for study abroad experiences from which students return with a new perspective that enhances their studies and research. The Entomology Department participates in a number of dual-degree programs including Comparative and International Education (CI ED) , Human Dimensions of Natural Resources and the Environment (HDNRE) , International Agriculture and Development (INTAD) and Operations Research (OR). Additional specialization is available to students conducting research with insects in intercollege degree programs in ecology, genetics and plant biology.
