Administrative History

Entomology courses at Oklahoma State University were first offered in the department of Botany and Entomology between 1891 and 1909. In 1909 the departments separated and the Entomology Department formed under the direction of department head, C.E. Sanborn. In 1918 the department of Entomology was transferred from the overhead of the Division of Science and Literature to the Division of Agriculture. The Agricultural Experiment Station paid many professors and therefore early publications and research were done in collaboration with the AES. The department still works closely with the Experiment Station as well as with Cooperative Extension Service. Some of the joint projects breach subjects such as: Integrated Pest Management, Stored Products Research and Education Center, Pesticide Application Education and Crop Insects and Disease.
