Currently, the Ministry of Education and Training is presiding over the development of national training program standards, including construction and architecture groups. In the Standard of the training program for the construction industry, it is necessary to arrange the engineering geology module. This is a compulsory subject, a basic subject for civil engineers. Currently, the engineering geology course being taught at institutions with university training in construction is still not consistent in terms of teaching volume, teaching content, teaching methods, assessment methods, etc… On the basis of analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of equipping knowledge and skills in the field of engineering geology in practice for training engineers in construction engineering, the author of the article has proposed some solutions to improve knowledge and skills in applying knowledge of engineering geology in the process of training civil engineers at the university level.
