昆虫学理学学士

昆虫的数量超过所有其他生命形式的总和。人类健康，地方和全球经济以及可持续的粮食和水供应全都取决于昆虫的最新知识，它们在生态系统中的重要作用以及有效的管理。每年，基于研究的控制虫媒疾病的策略可以挽救数百万的生命。蜜蜂和其他昆虫的授粉可确保饮食中水果和蔬菜的供应，而昆虫群落是环境质量的重要指标，他们的研究促进了生态系统的恢复和管理。尽管大多数物种是有益的，但害虫造成的死亡人数比所有战争加起来还要多，破坏了食物和纤维，破坏了房屋和其他建筑物。昆虫学家，生物医学研究者，环境科学家和进化生物学家研究昆虫以了解生物学
Insect species outnumber all other life forms combined. Human health, local and global economies, and sustainable food and water supplies all depend on state-of-the-art knowledge about insects, their integral roles in ecosystems and their effective management. Every year research-based strategies for control of insect-borne diseases save millions of lives. Pollination by honey bees and other insects ensures the availability of fruits and vegetables in our diets, and insect communities are important indicators of environmental quality and their study advances ecosystem restoration and management. While most species are beneficial, insect pests account for more deaths than all wars combined, destroy food and fiber, and damage homes and other structures. It's no wonder that entomologists, biomedical researchers, environmental scientists and evolutionary biologists study insects to understand the biological world, improve the human condition and protect the environment.
