This programme explores the biological, ecological, medical, and agricultural significance of insects, with a focus on their impact on ecosystems, public health, and human activities.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #000000;\">Delivered through a structured combination of lectures, projects, and research projects, the mix mode is ideal for students seeking an in-depth, professionally oriented understanding of entomology. Students will engage with key topics such as insect anatomy, physiology, and pest management, and will also complete a research project to apply their knowledge in a focused study.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #000000;\">The programme is offered to:<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #000000;\">Full-time students (minimum 1.5 year, maximum 3 years)<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #000000;\">Part-time students (minimum 2.5 years, maximum 5 years)<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #000000;\">Graduates will be well-equipped for careers in research institutions, agriculture, public health agencies, environmental organisations, and various sectors of the biological sciences. The programme also provides a solid foundation for those intending to pursue PhD studies in entomology or related

scientific research. Students are introduced to the philosophy of science and ethics necessary to be adopted by researchers. Students are given exposure to determine and manage risks in scientific research. Apart from that, issues and rules related to research such as intellectual property, copyright, plagiarism etc. will be discussed.\u00a0 Subsequently, students are guided to plan their research and prepare a research proposal. For this, students are trained with techniques in information search both manually and on-line, identifying issues and research objectives, planning research and experimental design within their period of study. Students are required to prepare their research proposal according to the format and free from plagiarism. Students are given the opportunity to present and defend their proposal in a seminar. Students will be evaluated based on written and oral presentation of the research proposal, and final examination<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>STAB6644 Insect Pest Management<\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">This course will discuss the principles of Integrated Insect Pest Management (IPM). The important components that ensure the success of IPM, such as basic biology, ecology, insect behavior, biotic and abiotic factors, types of damage, economic threshold levels, monitoring, sampling, strategies and techniques of pest control that are environmental friendly using biological control agents (predators, parasitoids, pathogens and microbial insecticides) will be discussed. Students will also be introduced to the concept of on-line and modeling <\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">development for \u2018Integrated Pest Management Program\u2019 (IPM), and how best to implement\u00a0(including on aspects of agricultural law) and evaluate socially, politically and environmentally\u00a0acceptable in a borderless economic era. The law of pesticide development, usage and selling\u00a0and aspect of insect quarantine will also be discussed. Additionally, students will be introduced\u00a0to contributions of biotechnology methods and techniques to the progress and success of IPM.\u00a0At the end of the course students are required to develop an IPM for the current three species\u00a0of major insect pests of their selected crops.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>STAB6674 Insect Anatomy and Physiology<\/strong><\/span><br \/>This course discusses on anatomy and various physiological processes occurring within insects for them to carry out daily activities for purposes of survival and reproduction. The anatomy and basic physiological processes discussed include endocrine system and insect growth, reproductive system, embryogenesis, digestive system and nutrition, excretory system and ion balance, circulatory system and immune mechanism, respiration as well as muscle system and insect flight. In addition, nervous and sensory systems, insect perception, sound and light production as well as pheromone in insect communication are also discussed. Through case study, lab and readings on the latest research publications in insect physiology, students will be able to understand the functions of a broad physiological system in relation to morphological, anatomical, and biochemical changes in insects that brought about their natural behaviour which are essential for practical application at the macro as well as molecular levels.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>STAP6978 Research Project I<\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">This course aims to train students to conduct research in the field of biological sciences under supervision.
