野外地质实习是中国岩土工程及工程地质等相关专业中必不可少的实践性教学环节。笔者结合国内外相关实习及实验的亲身经历，以中国吉林大学与美国密西西比大学为例，对两所高校的地质实习教学方法及手段进行对比分析，总结国内教学过程中的不足。结合国内具体情况，文章提出以学生为中心进行实习、实验教学活动，从而达到提高学生动手能力，培养学生创新思维，最终提高教学质量。

Geological fieldwork is an important part of high education system of geotechnical and engineering geology in China. Combined with the domestic and overseas practice experience, Jilin University and University of Mississippi are taken as examples to analyze the teaching method in geological fieldwork and find the deficiency in education of our country. Based on the specific situation of China, leaner centered teaching method is put forward to cultivate students’ innovative thinking style and improve education quality.
