法国国家科学研究中心生态与环境研究所（INEE）隶属于法国国家科学研究中心。

法国国家科学研究中心（法文：Centre national de la recherche scientifique），简称“CNRS”，成立于1939年10月19日，隶属于法国高等教育和研究部，是法国最大的政府研究机构，也是欧洲最大的基础科学研究机构，同时也是世界顶尖的科学研究机构之一  。

法国国家科学研究中心生态与环境研究所（INEE）的研究方向包括生态与环境学领域中的所有研究，包含生物多样性和人类与环境间关系的探索。

科研中心的研究单位规模一般较小，它们主要有三种类型：直属研究单位（UPR）、协作研究单位（UPA）、混合研究单位（UMR）。第一种类型单位是科研中心本身所属的研究机构，其人员、经费均来自科研中心本身。后两种类型的研究单位是CNRS与高等院校和法国其它部门联合组建的研究机构，在人员与经费方面的投入由参与方在组建时协商确定。

在CNRS近1300个研究单位中，直属研究单位约200个，比例最小；而协作研究单位和混合研究单位有1000余个。近些年来，CNRS重视混合研究单位的建设和发展，这成为其机构建设的一大新特点。目前，混合研究单位的数量已超过500个,且其与协作研究单位从本质上来说区别不大。协作研究单位发展较早（1966年），它们主要由科研中心通过与大学签定协作合同成立的；混合研究单位则是在近十几年才发展起来，参与这种混合研究单位的机构更加广泛，包括企业及其他公共及私人机构。各方不仅有资金、人力的投入，而且它们还参与混合研究单位的管理。

The Institute for Ecology and the Environment (INEE) is part of the French National Centre for Scientific Research.

National Centre for Scientific Research (French: Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), founded on 19 October 1939 under the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, is the largest government research institute in France and the largest basic scientific research institute in Europe. It is also one of the world's leading scientific research institutions.

The research interests of the Institute for Ecology and the Environment (INEE) of the French National Centre for Scientific Research include all research in the field of ecology and the environment, including the exploration of biodiversity and the relationship between humans and the environment.

Research units in research centers are generally small in size, and they mainly fall into three types: directly affiliated research units (UPR), collaborative research units (UPA), and mixed research units (UMR). The first type of unit is the research institution affiliated to the research center itself, whose personnel and funds come from the research center itself. The latter two types of research units are jointly established by CNRS, universities and other French departments, and the input in personnel and funds shall be negotiated by the participants at the time of establishment.

Among the nearly 1300 research institutes in CNRS, about 200 are directly affiliated with CNRS, making up the smallest proportion. There are more than 1,000 collaborative and mixed research units. In recent years, CNRS attaches great importance to the construction and development of mixed research units, which has become a new feature of its institutional construction. At present, the number of mixed research units is over 500, and they are not very different from collaborative research units in nature. Collaborative research units developed earlier (in 1966), which were mainly established by research centers through the signing of contracts with universities; Mixed research units have only been developed in the last decade and involve a wider range of institutions, including enterprises and other public and private institutions. The parties not only have financial and human input, but they also participate in the management of the hybrid research unit.
