    I should have specified that. Certificate level, or one course only etc Not for BA or MA, just certificate or courses.

    I suppose spelling it correctly would help, my first step in the learning process----entomology

    UF has a fantastic DL Masters and Certificate program in this field. - Master of Science in Entomology and Nematology

    Some you can take at the undergraduate level. You can take individual courses as well without doing a degree program.

    "I suppose spelling it correctly would help, my first step in the learning process----entomology..."

    And I thought "entymology" was the study of how to spell insect names.

    Melanoplus bivittatus
    Gryllus texensis
    Oecanthus fultoni
    Stictocephala bisonia
    Pterophylla camellifolia
    Ancyloxypha numitor

    Do I get a Master of Entymology, now?

    I KNEW someone would say that, eventually. Yes, you do deserve an MA in entymology, the study of insect names.....LOL

    You’re welcome; though it seems online stand-alone entomology courses are somewhat in the slim-pickens category.

    Oorah!

    Slightly ironic in that I wondered if you meant etymology :approve:

    Maniac Craniac----That's why I mentioned insects, not sure how to spell entomology at first, but it would have taken two seconds to look it up, no excuse for laziness.

    You haven't even started the program yet, and you are already floundering. :smashfreakB:

    No, that's involved in the study of fish.

    Or maybe it involves the study of Delta House fraternity.

    This is one of the best places to learn about insects. This school University of Kentucky ENTOMOLOGY | Home, Nebraska and Florida are excellent choices also. :wiggle:
