Entomology Minor (Non-Teaching)
The College of Agriculture offers an undergraduate Entomology minor (non-teaching) in addition to the graduate program in Entomology. The entomology minor provides students majoring in various areas of the agricultural and biological sciences with a discrete set of courses emphasizing the important discipline of entomology. The minor was designed to serve the needs of students in both the College of Agriculture and the College of Letters and Science (Biology and Microbiology). In addition to the minor, students may also undertake undergraduate research projects, internships, special topics and undergraduate creative activity projects with individual faculty housed in the Department of Animal and Range Sciences, Land Resources and Environmental Sciences, and Plant Science and Plant Pathology.
