Alumni

Welcome Alumni and Friends!


The Department of Entomology has evolved and grown substantially through our more than 100-year history, and our alumni are a large part of that story. We invite you to keep in touch, get involved, and stay connected to the Department and College of Chemical and Life Sciences.

We’d welcome your involvement in the momentum of the Department and the College. Here are some ways you can get involved:

  • Give to the Steinhauer Scholarship Fund – In 2008, the Entomology Department established an endowed scholarship fund in honor of Dr. Allen L. Steinhauer (1931-2008), Professor Emeritus, Entomology faculty member (1958-1993), and  Chair (1975-1993). The Steinhauer Fund helps to support our graduate program.

  • Take a TERP to Work! – Externships are a new way for students to visit your workplace for a day to learn about your day-to-day duties and get a taste of the job that they may want to have someday.

  • Join the CLFS Alumni Association Chapter – Founded in 1995, the College’s Alumni Association Chapter is being revitalized and needs your help. All Alumni Association members are welcome to join! Contact Steve Silipigni, Associate Director of Development and Alumni Relations at 301.405.4324 or stephan@umd.edu.  Events such as tailgates, game watches, scientific presentations, and student mentoring programs are planned.

  • Join Us for Alumni Events – Visit our calendar of alumni events to see what’s planned for this semester.

  • Encourage Entrepreneurship – The Will Course for Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurial Office Hours – welcome alumni entrepreneurs who can provide invaluable support to faculty and students trying get that great discovery into the marketplace. The College’s twice monthly office hours are the perfect setting for alumni to come and lend their expertise to faculty and students. The Will Course, now in its third year, depends on guest speakers with real world experience who have brought the lessons of combing the life sciences and business skills to reality. Interested in getting involved? Contact Andrea Morris, Assistant Dean for Development and Corporate Relations, aemorris@umd.edu, 301-405-4572.
