Perhaps you've thought about making entomology your career. An entomologist is a scientist who studies insects.
Entomologists have many important jobs.
Some entomologists' study the classification, life cycle, distribution, physiology, behavior, ecology, or population dynamics of insects. Entomologists are researchers, teachers, or consultants, and may work for private companies, universities, or government agencies. About 8,000 men and women are professional entomologists in the United States. They work in jobs that include teaching about insects, working as extension entomologists, raising bees, enforcing quarantines and regulations, doing insect survey work, consulting on integrated pest management topics, selling insecticides, controlling pests, and conducting research on insect classification, taxonomy, biology, ecology, behavior, or control. The greatest number are employed in some aspect of economic or applied entomology dealing with the control of harmful insects.
