生態學能幫助我們了解生態系統的結構、功能與相互關係，進而預測人類活動可能造成的影響。
在具備生態學基礎知識後，本課程將指導學生如何將這些理論應用於環境影響評估實務 。環境影響評估結合了汙染對生態系影響等環境科學理論，是一門重要的實作課程。它將理論知識應用於實際，評估開發行為對環境的潛在影響，並提出減輕或避免不利影響的措施。

Ecology can help us understand the structure, function and interrelationships of ecosystems, and then predict the possible impacts of human activities.
After possessing the basic knowledge of ecology, this course will guide students how to apply these theories to environmental impact assessment practice. Environmental impact assessment combines environmental science theories such as the impact of pollution on the ecosystem and is an important practical course. It applies theoretical knowledge to practice, assesses the potential impact of development actions on the environment, and proposes measures to mitigate or avoid adverse impacts.

1.使學生瞭解動物生態調查在環境影響評估中所扮演角色。
2.培養學生瞭解各動物類群基本知識與其相關的調查方法。
3.訓練學生進行相關生態調查所需的基本觀念與技能，從中培養對生態環境的認識與關懷。

1. To enable students to understand the role that animal ecological surveys play in environmental impact assessment.
2. Cultivate students to understand the basic knowledge of various animal groups and related investigation methods.
3. Train students in the basic concepts and skills needed to conduct relevant ecological surveys, so as to cultivate their understanding and care for the ecological environment.
