Student Profile

Name: Greta Thorson
Hometown: Crofton, MD

Major: Entomology

Activities/Clubs at UD: E-52 Student Theater, Sailing Club, and Ag Ambassadors

Goals: I plan on going to graduate school for Entomology. My dream job would be to work for a scientific publication like National Geographic, conducting research.

Why did you choose Delaware?  I chose Delaware because it was one of the only ones close to home where I could study exactly what I wanted to without settling for another major. The program and teachers have thus far exceeded my expectations of what a large school like Delaware can provide for its students.

What do you like about your experience so far? I really love the fact that I have already had so many opportunities to do work in my field. Professors provide motivated students many opportunities to do undergraduate research.  I have not traveled abroad yet, so I am looking forward to my trip to Costa Rica in this Winter.
