Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology
Our objective is to train professionals through exposure to diverse aspects of the disciplines while maintaining a balance between applied and basic elements of each discipline. The Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology, therefore, offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Agriculture, Master of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.
The MS program in Entomology is available to qualified individuals who wish to pursue a master’s level program that requires a thesis. Importance is placed on both classroom and research training.
The Master of Agriculture option is a “non-thesis” option and is recommended for specific cases where a student has well-defined reasons for pursuing the degree.
