Education & Careers

Entomologists study insects and their relationships to the environment, humans, and other organisms. The science of entomology provides many choices and opportunities for those interested in the diversity of nature. While some entomologists work in the field, others work in the laboratory or classroom, and others find niches in regulatory entomology or the pest control industry.
