chemicals, as professional soil scientists working with the formation,

![]() "Last summer I worked in the Soil Chemistry & Biology lab on a project involving selenium speciation in mine run-off. This internship was actually paid employment and just shows how amazing the Department of Plant, Soil & Entomological Science is to be a part of. When I finish my degree in Soils I hope to work with people in third-world countries to maintain sustainable farming practices to produce food in a manner that improves the quality of life for many people." Soil Science Junior, Erin Morra
