The fascinating world of Entomology deals with the study of insects. During this course, you will learn about the fabulous diversity of insect life. You will learn their classification and their roles in ecosystems around the world.
Together, we will look at the major groups of insects and study their characteristics. We will also learn about how they interact with their environment in interesting and unique ways.
This Entomology course is ideal for anyone who wishes to gain a deep understanding of insects without having to go to university. You will get a better understanding of the conservation issues surrounding insects and their habitat, and you will understand more of the importance of effective habitat restoration.
Stepping into the wonderful world of Entomology is like entering another world. A world where everything is in miniature. And a world that connects so many other kingdoms together. Studying insects helps us understand how vital these creatures are for their environmental engineering, pollination services and, of course, providing food for other creatures.
We want you to attain a broad understanding of insects with this course. This will allow you to apply this to your different areas of work or pursue whichever specific aspects interest you the most.
The topic of entomology is broad and deep, and with this course, we will give an in-depth overview. The course is designed for beginners but will be suitable for anyone with an interest in insects and ecology.

As someone looking to change career into entomology but with very little existing knowledge, I was seeking a course that would introduce me to the subject in a clear and interesting way but cover lots of areas too. This was the perfect balance for me of information (and lots of it!) but with lots of visuals and video links too. It was really engaging but also pitched at a professional study level. I really enjoyed the course and have learnt a great deal. It has increased my enthusiasm and fascination for insects too. Thank you etuk, I would definitely recommend this course and will, without doubt, take other courses with them in the future.
This is a really good course for anyone who wants a solid grounding in the basics of entomology. It ranges from information on insect anatomy and ecology, to more applied entomology such as its uses in medicine and as pest control.
It gave a really good overview of what entomology entails
I liked the ability to undertake the course at my own pace.
The teaching is excellent. It’s clear, precise and easy to follow. The knowledge from Sue is fantastic and it’s taught in a very understandable way with no rush. It’s been really good and I feel I’ve been able to retain the information well because of the way the course has been taught.
