Academic Learning Compact - Entomology and Nematology
The entomology and nematology curriculum develops
an excellent knowledge base and an understanding of concepts and fundamental practices. Through formal courses, laboratory experimentation
and individual research experience, you will learn how the scientific method is applied to the biological world at the whole organism and
population levels. You will learn to evaluate hypotheses, to acquire and interpret experimental data, and to communicate results effectively
in appropriate styles. Special focus will be information on insect identification, morphology, behavior, physiology and ecology.
Additional information is available from your major's website.
