<br/><br/> This study provides a better understanding of thermal environment and occupants thermal comfort perceptions in campus urban spaces. For the outdoor thermal comfort investigation, it was found that besides microclimatic parameters, thermal adaptation factors had effects on human thermal sensation. And the results of this study show that outdoor thermal comfort can be improved by means of appropriate urban design since space orientation; aspect ratio (H/W) and vegetation were all found to affect human thermal comfort in outdoor urban spaces
