Abstract: In the existing teaching system, the environmental design professional courses have problems such as unreasonable curriculum setting, disconnection between practice and theory, and poor matching between training objectives and industry needs. To this end, this paper studies the optimization and reorganization strategy of the environmental design professional courses based on the concept of Outcome-Based Education (OBE), aiming to improve the scientific nature and practical adaptability of the curriculum system, solve the problems of loose connection between course modules, insufficient skill training, and lagging behind in the cultivation of students' comprehensive abilities. The research adopts the OBE concept, with "student-centered, learning output-oriented, and ability improvement as the goal" as the core, and optimizes the curriculum through the following strategies: reconstructing course modules, strengthening practical teaching, optimizing the evaluation system and deepening the integration of production and education, relying on corporate internships and school-enterprise cooperation projects to enhance students' industry adaptability and make the course training objectives more closely integrated with actual employment needs. The research results show that the optimized curriculum system under the guidance of OBE concept can significantly improve students' comprehensive ability in the field of environmental design. The OBE optimized curriculum has shown significant effects in improving students' practical ability. Compared with the traditional teaching model, the scores of students in the experimental group in various practical skills have been greatly improved. In terms of hand-drawing performance ability, the score of the experimental group increases from 72.4 points to 89.5 points, an increase of 23.60%.
