Entomology
Insect Biology is the major for students who like to work with insects and want to learn a combination of field and laboratory biology skills that are required to solve many important challenges in today's world. Our graduates have become leaders in industry, state and federal agencies, independent business owners and even university professors.
The Undergraduate Insect Biology Major Provides:
- Undergraduate research opportunities
- Study abroad programs
- Internships with professionals in the field
- A capstone experience mentored by a faculty member
Because the number of students in the Insect Biology major is small, it's like a small college experience in a large research university! Our high faculty-to-student ratio means we know your name, and can help you reach your goals.
