A university is an institution of higher education and centre of research within the United Empire of Earth (UEE). While many are centred on the education-dominated Rhetor system, several other developed systems also have universities, and some planets have numerous Universities.

Universities of the Rhetor System

Rhetor was discovered in 2287, making it the second extrasolar system to be visited after Croshaw, and the first system known two jumps away from the Sol system. The Croshaw - Rhetor Jump Point was discovered by students from Martian Institute of Space and Technology. The school's then-president Adrianne Zemlock , a critic of the way that Croshaw had been colonised by corporate interests, ransomed the Jump Point location to the government in return for a quarter of the habitable or terraformed land being set aside for educational purposes^[1].

Today the system is synonymous with higher education, and is home to a number of prestigious institutions, including:

University of Persei Analytical Research and Quantification - an institution with close ties to classified governmental research.^[1]
Carey University - home institution of Maze researchers Eva Anwar and Brian Ramsey.^[2]^[3]
University of Rhetor - a prestigious institution of education whose alumni include founders and CEOs of Caldera^[4], Greycat Industrial^[5], and Esperia.^[6]
University of Mentor - a university with a reputation for challenging its students^[1]; Imperator Laylani Addison was a Dean prior to her election.^[7]^[8]

Universities of the Sol System

Moscow, on Earth. Home to the University of Moscow.

As the home system of mankind, Sol is home to numerous ancient and prestigious institutions of higher education on both Earth and Mars.

This institutions in the Sol system include:

University of Earth at Australia - credited with the discovery and study of the Vasli Fragment Stone^[9]
University of Moscow, home to the exolinguistics department tasked with studying the Vanduul language.^[10]
Martian Institute of Space and Technology - credited with starting the Second Nuclear Age and the discovery of the Rhetor system.^[11]
Haymore School of Economics - an institution located in Geneva, attended by Magda Hurston^[12]

Universities of Terra

Quasi Institute for Xenological Studies (QIXS)

The Quasi Institute for Xenological Studies (QIXS) is located in Quasi. For two years following its discovery, the Vasli Fragment Stone was housed at QIXS.^[13]

Prime Linguistics Institute

Dr. Amelia Kesh was head chair of the Prime Linguistics Institute, located in the capital city of Prime in 2934. She was commissioned to construct an exact replica of the Vasli Fragment Stone.^[13]

Song University

Song University was named for Wei-Yin Song, who discovered Terra in 2516. The University has a strong presence in Banu cultural studies.^[14]

Alumni and Faculty of Song University

Albion 'Al' Le Coi - teacher of linguistics, advanced Banu, and basic Xi’an at Song, co-author of the Rust Society guide to the Banu Language.^[14]
Regina 'Reggi' Poole - Banu culture expert, created a Spectrum-based Banu culture course sponsored by the University, co-author of the Rust Society guide to the Banu Language.^[14]

Terra University

Drake Interplanetary co-founder Dr. Irena Marqet remarked of Terra University; "They’ll throw a doctorate at you just for landing on the planet."^[15]

Alumni and Faculty of Terra University

Charmane Alvarez - Professor of Criminology.^[16]
Jan Dredge, co-founder and first CEO of Drake Interplanetary, and designer of the cutlass. Studied aerospace engineering.^[15]
Tom Harroway - founder of a metal refinery on Garron III. Attended Terra University with a full scholarship.^[17]
Cara Hoshji - recieved a substantial scholarship to study AstroEngineering, later worked for the Support & Supply Agency.^[18]
Jan Wallace - Professor of Geological Sciences.^[19]
Adorai and Victor Zahid - founders of Chemline Solutions, received partial scholarships to study geological engineering and a dual-degree in economics and business management respectively. Adorai later became a Professor of Geological Studies at Terra.^[20]

Universities of Jata, Cestulus (Davien II)

The iconic domed city of Jata is home to at least two Universities.

Jata, the iconic city of Cestulus (Davien II), is home to at least two Universities.

Astravin University at Cestulus (AUC)

Astravin University at Cestulus (AUC) is a public research university in Jata on Cestulus (Davien II) and the flagship campus of the Astravin University system. Founded in 2520, AUC survived Cestulus' difficult colonial period and expanded during the planet's economic reversal in the 27th century. It is the largest university in the Davien system and features an oshi fish as its mascot.^[21]

University of Jata

The University of Jata is located in the city of Jata on Cestulus (Davien II). Simone Maruyama is a Professor of History at the University of Jata, and a member of the Jata Historical Society’s Board of Directors, who proposed naming a city park after controversial former Aegis Dynamics CEO Hana Chan.^[22]

Universities of Saisei (Centauri III)

Fujin City on Saisei is home to Fujin Technical College. The University of Saisei is also located on the planet.

Saisei (Centauri III) is home to at least two Universities, one of which has operated research bases on Yar (Centauri II).

Fujin Technical College (FTC)

Fujin Technical College (FTC) is an institute of higher education located in Fujin City on Saisei (Centauri III). FTC offers a variety of training courses, and is most notable for its Certification in Arts and Design. The school itself was designed to blend seamlessly with Fujin City’s natural environment.^[23]

University of Saisei

The University of Saisei is located on Saisei (Centauri III). It restored a former terraforming station on Yar (Centauri II) as a research outpost in 2501. The parents of Kayva Crosby were employed to run the facility's landing pad. Kayva was born shortly after their arrival in 2503. In 2518, biotech expert Meredith Douze joined the outpost with her son, Aaron Douze. After returning to Saisei at the age of 17, Aaron studied business at the University, followed by Kayva who studied engineering: the two later marry, and founded Tumbril Land Systems.^[24]

Other Universities

University of Aten

The University of Aten, located on Serling (Horus I), is conducting a lengthy study in an attempt to isolate the differences between people who flourish in the unusual daylight conditions of the tidally-locked worlds (often those in families who have lived on the planet for generations) versus those who have trouble adjusting.^[25]

University of Angeli

The University of Angeli is located on Angeli (Croshaw II). August Dunlow, founder of Crusader Industries, studied a double-major in business and political science. While at the University he became a staunch Anti-Messer activist.^[26]

University of Jalan

The University of Jalan is located on the Tevarin homeworld of Jalan (Elysium IV). Nutrition researchers at Jalan developed the Hydration Efficacy Index.^[27] Jovi Ingstrom, co-founder of Esperia, studied xenoarcheology at Jalan until being expelled in his sophomore year.^[28]

University of Tram

The University of Tram, located in Tram on Asura (Ferron III), was attended by Basilisk founder Simone Visconti, where she studied engineering. The programme was considered notably less prestigious than that of the institution she left, at UPARQ.^[29]
