The course of non-destructive testing in civil engineering curriculum is critical to the training of application-oriented talents. In this paper, we identified the problems in our curriculum structure, teacher resources, course book materials, and teaching modes based on our teaching of this course. To solve these problems, we studied the ways to improve the course teaching from the following aspects: optimization of theory teaching materials, improvement of experiment instruction model, promotion of course book quality, enforcement of teaching corps, and perfection of teaching assessment criteria. This study aims to promote the course construction and offer helpful guidance and reference for the curriculum construction of this program.
