THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY

Our mission is to conduct outstanding research on insect science that will improve human health, quality of life, and the sustainability of our food and ecosystems... Since the museum's founding, the collection has continued to grow through collecting efforts, scientific vouchers, and donations. It now houses approximately one million specimens, most of which were collected from the eastern US. Since 2013, we have been digitizing the collection in order to expand the accessibility of the collection and make the associated data available for science... We have developed strong entomological programs and traditions in teaching, outreach, and research. Prospective graduate students will find information on our educational programs, curriculum, and research opportunities. If you need information on the management of insect pests, numerous fact sheets are available that address your specific needs.
