Abstract
The Most important questions about the thermal comfort of educational spaces in campuses and its effect on the functional performance are simple ones. Why this subject important, Developing design standards for university buildings in the region to reach spaces that provide thermal comfort and high functionality, do educational spaces is lack thermal comfort requirements, and what is the effect of thermal comfort on the functionality of university educational buildings? Only by answering these questions can we develop design parameters to achieve the requirements of thermal comfort for education space users. The research about thermal comfort of educational spaces in campuses and its effect on the functional performance helps all educational spaces user to arrive to the design criteria and conditions necessary to provide an atmosphere that seeks thermal comfort for the occupants of the educational spaces of the university buildings. When analyzing the case study, it was found that the educational spaces in the Department of Civil Engineering at Garmian University need a set of design treatments after identifying the exiting problem. Thermal comfort helps teachers and students focus within the learning spaces while performing lessons. The intriguing ides expressed in this thesis open the door to questions about how designing university buildings with a higher degree of thermal comfort for their occupants can raise the level of design functionality
