| Summary |
|---|
| Field Training in Engineering Ecology is focused on practical experiences, ecological research methods and evaluating the results. Field works are organized in post-industrial landscape, respectively in post-mining landscape. The practice is carried out by sub-field work under the guidance of staff of the Institute. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
Practical field exercise consists of the following areas:
(a) an introduction to selected environmental problems of post-industrial respectively post-mining landscapes in the field;
(B) demonstration of significant natural phenomena and communities of post-industrial respectively post-mining landscapes in the field;
(c) the issue of nature and landscape conservation of post-industrial and post-mining landscapes;
(d) the preparation of field work. |
