当您的研究领域涵盖800,000种生物多样性昆虫物种时，挑战将无穷无尽。该计划是该州唯一的昆虫学研究生计划，它使人们对昆虫及其对农业，人类健康和环境的影响有深入的了解。作为一名研究生，您将学习与昆虫系统，生物多样性，生态学，生理学和害虫管理有关的高级主题。您将获得开发综合害虫管理系统，培育抗害虫植物，解决新出现的授粉问题以及与国内外昆虫传播疾病作斗争的技能。该计划的学生将领导独立研究，并有机会在爱达荷州的多种生态条件和耕作系统中进行实验。
When your field of study encompasses 800,000 biologically diverse insect species, the challenges are endless. This program, the state's only graduate program in entomology, provides a deep understanding of insects and their impact on agriculture, human health and the environment.<br><br>As a graduate student, you will study advanced topics related to insect systems, biodiversity, ecology, physiology and pest management. You will acquire the skills to develop integrated pest management systems, breed pest-resistant plants, tackle emerging pollination issues, and battle insect-borne diseases here and abroad. Students in this program lead independent research, with opportunities to conduct experiments across Idaho's diverse ecological conditions and cropping systems.
