Rock & soil drilling and excavation engineering is widely applied to the urban construction, underground construction, deep expedition and mineral resources exploration and other fields. Its series courses system construction is conducive to grasp the needs of professional applications and trigger innovation. Starting from teaching practice of drilling and excavation series courses, the multi-angle and multi-level exploration of new teaching model is expanded. Taking the knowledge-ability-quality-innovation as the main line, developing students' creativity and practical ability as the goal, combining the unique advantages of the school, the engineering innovative thinking is applied to teaching practice. The content of diversified teaching mode is proposed, taking optimize the modular curriculum, innovative research teaching methods, construction of teaching practice system, innovation and teaching achievement evaluation system as the core.
