Welcome to the
Educational Outreach site of the Department of Entomology.
Our faculty, staff and graduate students extend science education
beyond classroom boundaries to audiences of all ages.
Summer Camp -- Five one-week day camp sessions for 7 to
12 year olds. Campers use insects and other arthropods
in natural and laboratory settings to learn about biological,
environmental and ecological concepts.
Talks & Tours --
General entomology, ecology and agriculture programs for kindergarden
to adult audiences offered year round.
Maryland Day -- See and touch live
insects and arthropods during the University of Maryland's
spring open house. Over 40,000 visitors attend each year.
