Tuition for all courses is $1,299. A deposit payment of $399 is required to complete registration, and the remaining balance can be made in three equal monthly payments from March-May.
Entomology course, students will discover “un-bee-lievable” ways insects interact with their environments, their significance to human society and different careers in the field of entomology.
Students will “spread their wings” and gain practical, field- and laboratory-based skills through hands-on activities, experiments and expeditions to distinct habitats.
Students will collect, identify and preserve insects to create their own unique insect collections. Special topics include honey beekeeping, edible insects and the fields of forensic, medical and veterinary entomology.
By the end of this course, students will know the basics of insect diversity, biology, behavior, morphology and ecology, and how to pursue their passion for insects through high school and beyond.
