The purpose of this paper is to explore the implementation strategy of integrating the concept of outcome-based education (OBE) into the theory courses of art and design majors in colleges and universities. By analyzing the core elements of the OBE teaching concept of taking students as the main body, which is goal-and-ability-oriented, and combining the characteristics of theoretical course teaching of art and design majors, this paper puts forward the central idea of reconstructing the evaluation system of the theoretical course teaching of art majors, with special emphasis on the cultivation of "transferable" abilities. We have deepened the internal logic of modularized curriculum design, implemented project-based learning practices, deepened and expanded the strategies of reflective learning and interdisciplinary integration. These approaches will enhance students' transferable skills such as critical thinking, innovative design, teamwork, project management, etc., which lay a solid foundation for their future development. Through step-by-step empirical and theoretical research, this paper verifies the effectiveness and feasibility of the OBE teaching concept in the theoretical courses of art and design majors.
