The Penn State Insect Biodiversity Center supports the study, appreciation, and stewardship of insect life through collaboration, outreach, and interdisciplinary engagement. As part of Penn State’s commitment to research and public service, the Center connects experts, students, and partners who are working to expand knowledge of insect biodiversity and its role in healthy ecosystems.
The Center serves as a resource for insect biodiversity research, education, and conservation at Penn State. It helps foster connections across disciplines, encourage discovery, and support practical solutions that benefit agriculture, natural resources, and environmental health. Through its work, the Center advances a deeper public understanding of why insects matter and how insect science contributes to informed decision-making.
