From its dawn, the program has had an interinstitutional character. In 1993, the Doctoral degree began to be offered as well, attracting professionals with various backgrounds, such as biology, agronomy, and zootechnics. Since 2012, the Entomology Program is ranked level 6, in a scale from 1-7, by the Graduate Program Evaluation Committee of CAPES (Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel), in recognition of its excellence, according to the national rank of Programs in the field of Biodiversity.<br \/>\nThe program has attracted students from various universities across the country and from abroad (e.g., Germany, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Portugal, and Venezuela). Students graduated in the program have specifically worked in basic research questions as well as applied entomology, such as monitoring of environmental impacts and the development of more rational methods and more environmentally favorable agricultural pest control.<br \/>\nIn the academic context, the program is connected to other institutions through adjunct thesis supervisors, as well as by knowledge exchange with research groups in Entomology from universities in S\u00e3o Paulo state as well as in other states. Examples of institutions historically associated with our Entomology Program are the following: the Ribeir\u00e3o Preto Medical School, USP (Ribeir\u00e3o Preto, SP); S\u00e3o Paulo Agency of Agribusiness Technology \u2013 Ribeir\u00e3o Preto (Ribeir\u00e3o Preto, SP); College of Agriculture and Animal Science of Jaboticabal, UNESP (Jaboticabal, SP); Biological and Health Sciences Center, UFSCar (S\u00e3o Carlos, SP); Faculty of Science and Literature, UNESP (Assis, SP); Institute of Biosciences, Literature and Science, IBILCE-UNESP (S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9 do Rio Preto, SP), Center of Nuclear Energy in Agriculture, CENA-USP (Piracicaba, SP); College of Agriculture \u201cLuiz de Queiroz\u201d, ESALQ-USP (Piracicaba, SP); Institute of Biosciences of Rio Claro, UNESP (Rio Claro, SP); Institute of Biosciences of S\u00e3o Paulo, IB-USP (S\u00e3o Paulo, SP); Museum of Zoology -MZUSP (S\u00e3o Paulo, SP); Institute of Biology, UNICAMP (Campinas, SP); and Institute of Biology \u2013 UFU (Uberl\u00e2ndia, MG).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"objetivos\">\n<p>The Graduate Program in Entomology, Faculty of Philosophy, Languages and Literature, and Sciences of Ribeir\u00e3o Preto \u2013 University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FFCLRP-USP) is intended for graduates of professional education focused on areas related to the Life Sciences, attracting professionals with various backgrounds, such as biology, agronomy, and animal sciences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"areasPesq\">\n<p>\n<strong>Applied Entomology:<\/strong> aims to develop methods and evaluate their applications for various areas of basic research and activities of economic interest.
