本課主要探討如何管理與健康、環境相關的風險，除介紹風險的定義，零風險或利益平衡，與風險管理、風險溝通的主要模式外，並介紹在國際間越發重要的風險預防原則的內涵與引發的爭議。就風險議題定性與分類上，將一般通稱的"風險"分做三種主要類型，並分別佐以與我國相關的風險爭議進行探討。這三類風險風險分別是具有實質危害性的風險、欠缺足夠科學證據協助判斷與管理的風險型態，與公眾高度疑慮、恐慌卻未必有真實立論基礎的"風險"議題。不同的風險管理機制與難題也將在課程中被逐一處理與探討。This course mainly explores how to manage risks related to health and environment. In addition to introducing the main models of risk definition, zero risk or balance of interests, and risk management and risk communication, it also introduces the connotation and disputes of the increasingly important risk prevention principles in the international community. Regarding the qualitative and classification of risk issues, the generally known "risk" are divided into three main types, and are discussed separately with risk disputes related to our country. These three types of risk risk are risky, lack of sufficient scientific evidence to assist in judgment and management, and there may not be a real and basic "risk" discussion with the public's high doubts and panic. Different risk management mechanisms and problems will also be processed and discussed one by one during the course.

The general course is different from the professional course, and it focuses on guiding students to actively care, explore and understand the ultimate value and wisdom of human beings. At the same time, the knowledge provided by the general course is not the purity of the professional course, but the basic knowledge with a strong sense of reality. Our school has established four basic qualities for general education based on the concept of creating school traditions, school training and management: seeking truth, trustworthiness, striving for general education, and implementing the ideal of general education in our school in a specific way. I hope that students of this school can develop the spirit of independent learning, and under the guidance of general course teachers, they will gradually cultivate their basic qualities of general education, and look forward to finally learning. Various basic qualities are cultivated and have specific indicators for self-verification of teaching and learning results. They are divided into the following: Truth-seeking and nourishing (nature domain): 1. Learn the methods or philosophy of natural sciences to explore the subtleties of physics and the world of life, 2. Develop the spirit of doing things, 3. Be able to participate in public affairs related to scientific topics. Relief and nourishment (humanity field): 1. Learn the humanistic spirit to explore the deep value of inner self and leading human civilization, 2. Develop self-discipline spirit, 3. Be able to use rationality to conduct moral reasoning. Practice and cultivate (social field): 1. Use social science methods or philosophy to stimulate students' listening and communication skills, 2. Accept and respect for diversity and differences, 3. Realize the spirit of democratic review. Hongtong basic cultivation (cross-domain): 1. Pursuing the overall value of human beings, 2. Integrating truth-seeking, trustworthiness, and action in personal life. Courses in various fields can be selected across learning performance indicators without being restricted.
