Course description
Ecology is a branch of biology. The first half of the class will cover basic biology, which is essential for understanding ecology. In the latter half of the class, I will explain not only the basics of ecology, but also various problems in life science and its relation to society. There are no restrictions on taking this class, but students who are not good at natural science should review the lecture thoroughly. The course may not proceed according to the syllabus for various reasons.
Purpose of class
Ecology is a field that considers the relationships among organisms and the relationships between organisms and physical and chemical environmental factors. Therefore, knowledge of natural science in general may be necessary. In this class, students will learn and understand the knowledge of ecology and biology that they should know in general.
Goals and objectives
  1. The students can understand the concept of Ecology.
  2. The students can understand relationships between Ecology and the other fields.
