Event Calendar

The SPF Program is a two-year training program that prepares entomologists to advocate for the discipline at the federal level. Five fellows are selected annually through a competitive process and receive policy training at the annual meeting, followed by twice-yearly visits to Washington, D.C. to meet with Congressional offices, federal agencies, and partner organizations.

Designed for graduate students and postdocs in entomology, the PACT program helps individuals develop the leadership capacity and “soft skills” sought after in today’s highly collaborative work environments—both within and beyond academia.

EntoMentos is a flexible, informal mentorship program designed to foster lasting connections in the entomology community. Mentors and mentees meet weekly over the summer to explore career paths, graduate school, and the intersection of personal and professional growth.

Nominations open for ESA Governing Board positions, Section and International Branch officers, and Honorary Members. Learn more and explore open positions.  

Each committee offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the ESA community while growing your professional skills and network. Explore the full list of upcoming vacancies and get involved.
