The biennial meeting of the International Ethological Congress is open to all who are interested in ethology, animal behavior and related disciplines. The IEC is the only international gathering for those studying all aspects of animal behavior. The coverage of the field at IEC conferences is always broad, with papers ranging from neurobiology and neurochemistry to applied animal ethology and behavioral evolution. The IEC emphasizes integration of the field of animal behavior across all animal groups and all levels of analysis rather than promoting one particular point of view or methodology. It seeks to integrate pure and applied ethology, field and laboratory orientations, theoretical and empirical approaches and to bring together those working in other subdisciplines, such as ornithology, herpetology, mammalogy, entomology, primatology, physical anthropology. The conference also makes an effort to bring in ideas from related fields that can broaden and strengthen the study of behavior. It is particularly important that young scientists be exposed to this perspective and to the intellectual stimulation that this conference provides. They need to establish professional contacts with leaders in their field from around the world. As interactions in many fields increase, this opportunity for international dialogue between young scientists of different countries should also not be overlooked. Because these young scientists are often financially limited, NSF support that would partially defray the costs of this conference will greatly enhance their participation in the conference and allow them to reap the professional and intellectual rewards of that experience.

国际伦理大会的两年一度会议向所有对道德，动物行为和相关学科感兴趣的人开放。 IEC是研究动物行为各个方面的唯一国际聚会。在IEC会议上，该领域的覆盖范围总是广泛的，论文从神经生物学和神经化学到应用动物伦理学和行为进化。 IEC强调了所有动物群体和所有分析层面的动物行为领域的整合，而不是促进一种特定的观点或方法论。它旨在整合纯粹和应用的伦理学，现场和实验室取向，理论和经验方法，并将工作人员融合到其他子学科，例如鸟类学，疱疹学，哺乳动物学，哺乳动物学，昆虫学，原始学，物理人类学，物理人类学。会议还努力从相关领域的想法中引入可以扩大和加强行为研究的想法。 特别重要的是，年轻的科学家要接受这一观点和本次会议提供的智力刺激。他们需要与世界各地的领导者建立专业联系。随着许多领域的互动增加，不同国家的年轻科学家之间国际对话的机会也不应忽略。由于这些年轻科学家通常在财务上受到限制，因此将部分支付本会议成本的NSF支持将大大提高他们参加会议的参与，并使他们能够获得这种经验的专业和知识奖励。
