Welcome!

Dear incoming Insect Biology students,

On behalf of the entire faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you to the Department of Entomology. We have been blessed with a long legacy of exceptional students, who have learned in our classrooms and worked in our laboratories.

The network of active graduate and professional researchers is extensive, and the opportunity to be part of that network starts now during your time as a student in the department.

This handbook serves as a resource for you. It has information that we feel will help you take control of your career and guide you towards your goals.

We encourage you to become involved in the many activities of the Department. This is an essential way to become invested in your education, challenge yourself and discover new insights as part of your undergraduate educational experience.

I look forward to getting to know you and helping you on your way to a successful career. If you have any questions, please contact me at apendle@purdue.edu.

Amanda Wilson

Senior Academic Advisor
