Oklahoma State University

BS in Entomology




The Entomology department at Oklahoma State University is a small student-centered department. Because we are a small, close-knit group students can expect to receive important individualized attention, greater access to scholarship funds and wide range of opportunities for internships, and one-on-one research experiences with a faculty mentor. And, an entomology degree is highly marketable in today's job market!

Entomology refers to the discipline of studying insects. It is a very broad discipline involving everything from "outdoor" work in environmental issues (invasive species, emerging arthropod-borne disease), ecology, animal behavior, parasitology, insect-plant interactions to very "high tech" applications in biotechnology, molecular studies, forensics, and medical/veterinary entomology. The program offers two degree options:

       Insect Biology and Ecology
       Bioforensics, Pre-veterinary and Pre-medical sciences
