Undergraduate Opportunities
The Department of Entomology jointly runs the Biological Sciences (BSCI) undergraduate major, where most of our faculty members teach, and we play an active role in the education and training of undergraduates across disciplines. So, whether you're studying biological sciences, environmental science, engineering, or beyond, the Department of Entomology offers a wide range of opportunities for undergraduates to explore how insects can answer fundamental questions about our world.
Entomology Minor
The Entomology minor provides students with a broad understanding of the form and function of insects, their interactions with people and society, and their role as model species for fundamental and applied research.
Departmental Honors Program
Embark on your own independent research project with the Entomology Honors Program. Departmental honors students pursue original research and write a thesis under the mentorship of faculty. Successful students graduate with an Honors in Entomology distinction on their diplomas.
Research & Scholarship Opportunities
Our department offers diverse and growing opportunities for undergraduates to participate in real-world investigations. Students conduct research in our labs as paid research assistants, volunteers, and/or for research credits.
Advising for BSCI Majors
Our faculty serve as academic advisors for students in the Biological Sciences Undergraduate Program. This program prepares students for diverse careers in science, education, communication, policy, and health fields. Our advising team supports students in course planning and degree completion, finding research and internship opportunities, preparing for graduate school or a career, and connecting with resources.
