专业概况

在这里学什么？

Insect species outnumber all other life forms combined. Human health, local and global economies, and sustainable food and water supplies all depend on state-of-the-art knowledge about insects, their integral roles in ecosystems and their effective management. Every year research-based strategies for control of insect-borne diseases save millions of lives. Pollination by honey bees and other insects ensures the availability of fruits and vegetables in our diets, and insect communities are important indicators of environmental quality and their study advances ecosystem restoration and management.

While most species are beneficial, insect pests account for more deaths than all wars combined, destroy food and fiber, and damage homes and other structures. It’s no wonder that entomologists, biomedical researchers, environmental scientists and evolutionary biologists study insects to understand the biological world, improve the human condition and protect the environment

Career Prospects in Entomology

Entomology majors graduate with many career options. Employers report immediate and longer-term needs for well-trained entomologists. Entomology majors are well prepared for graduate, medical and veterinary schools, as well as careers in plant health management, public health (including the armed forces), research laboratories, university extension services, agrochemical industries, crop consulting, environmental education, natural resource protection and conservation, and government agencies. Students who earn master’s degrees find many specialized opportunities in these same areas.

For students aspiring to a professional degree in K-12 education, medicine or veterinary medicine, a major in entomology provides an excellent background and favorable reception from graduate schools. Entomologists who desire careers as research scientists or college professors pursue a doctorate. Many graduate students in entomology programs serve as research and teaching assistants as part of their training and receive stipends, tuition and other benefits that support all or most of their living and educational expenses while in graduate school.
