In the context of engineering education accreditation and the pursuit of enhanced teaching quality, the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concept has become a guiding principle for curriculum reform. The Logistics System Simulation course, characterized by its strong practical and interdisciplinary nature, requires an assessment system that accurately reflects students’ abilities to solve complex engineering problems. This paper explores the construction of a diversified, full-process assessment and evaluation scheme based on the OBE concept. By reversely designing course objectives from expected learning outcomes, redefining assessment points aligned with ability indicators, and integrating formative and summative evaluations, this study proposes a comprehensive evaluation framework. A case study demonstrates that the proposed scheme effectively stimulates students' autonomous learning, enhances their practical simulation skills, and provides a more objective measure of teaching effectiveness, aligning with the core philosophy of student-centerered and outcome-oriented education.
