Description

Insects are everywhere—on land, in water, even in the air. They’re tiny engineers, pollinators, recyclers and occasionally, household annoyances. This Entomology: Insect Studies Course opens the door to understanding the fascinating and sometimes mind-boggling world of insects. Whether it's how bees navigate, how ants organise their colonies like expert planners, or how dragonflies have been flying around since before dinosaurs roamed, this course brings insects into sharp focus—with zero need for a magnifying glass.

From the basics of insect anatomy to their role in ecosystems and agriculture, the content is clear, detailed and surprisingly fun. You’ll explore how insects communicate, defend themselves, and even how some mimic their way out of danger. Designed for anyone with an interest in nature, science or just a curiosity for things with six legs, this course helps you see insects not as pests, but as puzzle pieces in the web of life. And yes, it’s all online—so you’ll never have to chase a beetle around the living room.
