ENTOMOLOGY

Entomology is the study of insects and the impact of insects on the health and economic well-being of mankind. The Clay Lyle Entomology Complex houses the staff and administrative offices of the department, and the laboratory and classroom facilities support a broad range of extension, research and teaching functions. Students have access to a wide range of entomological expertise. Most faculty have joint appointments with the College of Agriculture and Home Economics and the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station and/or the Mississippi Cooperative Extension Service. The breadth of the department is also influenced by several USDA/ARS research laboratories located on campus and at Stoneville, Mississippi. Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Entomology are offered. Entomology jointly participates in the Agricultural Pest Management degree program with Plant Pathology and Weed Science.
