What
is... Entomology
and Wildlife Ecology?
Entomology
Entomology is the study of insects, the most abundant
wildlife on Earth, and their interactions with other
wildlife, humans, and the environment. Students in this
major wonder how and why insects do what they do. They
use this curiosity to try to figure out how to reduce
negative effects of insects on humans without negatively
affecting other life forms. Looking at insects' structures,
functions and behavior, entomology majors spend much
time in lab and in the field, which are both part of
this challenging biology-based curriculum.
Wildlife
Conservation
Students in this major are curious about how wild things
work...and the role they play in our world. From insects
to birds, reptiles to mammals, algae to oaks, the Wildlife
Conservation major examines all non-domesticated living
things and the challenges they face sharing the planet
with humans. Conserving biodiversity is the underlying
theme of our program, with its unique blend of lectures,
labs and field trips. For
