Mission
The mission of the PEC is to promote activities that enhance interest and provide greater knowledge of entomology within our group and the community at large. The club welcomes students, faculty and staff, and community members with a vocational or avocational interest in insects and their relatives. Our activities include, but are not limited to: social events, public education and outreach, departmental social gatherings, and professional development workshops.

Membership Benefits
The Popenoe Entomology Club (PEC) provides a space for members to explore their interests in insects and science communication. Members regularly collect and curate insects towards developing teaching materials. Meetings are a time for professional development, learning about insects, and having fun. Our club regularly engages in community outreach at fairs and schools. Members can access money for travel to scientific conferences based on their involvement.
