We consider the following two coupled Schrödinger systems in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N(N=2,3)$ with Neumann boundary conditions $\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\epsilon^2 \triangle u + u = \mu_1 u^3+ \beta u v^2,\\ -\epsilon^2 \triangle v + v =\mu_2 v^3+ \beta u^2 v,\\ u>0, v>0, \\ \partial u/\partial n = 0,\partial v/\partial n = 0, \mbox{on } \partial \Omega. \end{array}\right.$ Suppose the mean curvature $H(P)$ of the boundary $\partial \Omega$ admits several local maximums( or local minimums), we obtain the existence of segregated solutions $(u_\epsilon,v_\epsilon)$ to the above system such that both of $u_\epsilon$ and $v_\epsilon$ admit more than one local maximums, furthermore as $\epsilon$ goes to zero, the maximum points of $u_\epsilon$ and $v_\epsilon$ concentrate at different local maximum points( or local minimum points) of the mean curvature $H(P)$ respectively.
