Meet The Coordinator
Dr. Andrine Shufran has been employed with the Department of Entomology and Plant
Pathology since 2003. Shufran earned a B.S. in Horticulture and Entomology from Texas
A&M University, an M.S. in Agricultural Biology from New Mexico State University where
she was recognized with the Dean’s Award for Excellence (2000) and Distinguished Departmental

the facility, and providing more than 500 educational programs on arthropods, annually,
to children of all ages throughout the state. She enjoys skeet shooting with her husband,
playing piano, reading, movies, and gardening, but most of all, she LOVES her job
because she gets to be a kid who never grows up!
