Abstract: The research object of this paper is the 66 students of Groundwater science and engineering in Heibei GEO University. Their 11 courses’ exam scores in grade 3 were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA). The results show that the course system is basically reasonable, because most of the score of the curriculums in PC1 are consistent with each other. What’s more, the results show that the professional basic courses laid a good foundation for the development of other courses. At the same time, the weakness of the curriculums has been reflected during the study. The content of the professional practice may need to be adjusted because it failed to transform the theoretical knowledge to practical application.
