The Graduate Program in Entomology began in 2012, in full accordance with the Institutional Development Plan of UFPel, aiming to train committed professors in social, economic and technological aspects of the country.
Entomology is an area of knowledge of the Biological and Agricultural Sciences, and is of great importance to the development of professionals with critical thinking skills to solve problems related to these fields. The target audience is students with degrees in Agronomy, students with Bachelors and teaching degrees in Biology, and students with Bachelor’s degrees in Ecology and Forestry, so as to develop basic and applied research in the areas of Biology, Ecology and Agribusiness.
