本課程的主要目的在於建立學生良好的統計學觀念，進而培養學生獨立獨立設計實驗與分析資料的能力。課程將由討論科學方法為起點，介紹各種統計方法，包含敘述統計、t-test、變異數分析、相關分析、迴歸分析、類別資料分析與無母數統計。

The main purpose of this course is to establish good students' academic awareness and to cultivate students' ability to independently design practical experience and analyze data. The course will start with discussing scientific methods and introduce various statistical methods, including descriptive statistics, t-test, variation analysis, related analysis, replication analysis, category data analysis and masterless statistics.

本課程將透過專題論文研究的模式帶領學生進入生態學研究的領域，透過與老師們親自互動學習，並與研究生學長們一同進行野外調查及資料分析訓練，使同學們能熟悉生態研究的法則，並鼓勵學生從事生態學相關議題之閱讀或研究。

This course will lead students into the field of ecological research through the model of topical literature research, learn through personal interaction with teachers, and conduct field surveys and data analysis training with graduate students, so that students can be familiar with the laws of ecological research and encourage students to read or study related topics in ecology.
