Free University of Ushra

The Free University of Ushra on Athene/Riftin (Gateway 2629) is one of the foremost seats of advanced learning in the Third Imperium.

Description

Founded as the Republican Military Scientific Academy in -1440, the University has since grown to number some 40,000 permanent teaching staff and 200,000 students.

• The university is acknowledged as a center of excellence in many subjects, both arts and sciences, but is particularly well known for its historical/sophontological studies and its research in physical science and engineering.
• One of the greatest claims to fame of the Engineering Faculty is its formation of OrbiTower Corporation, the design consultancy which drew up the plans for Dagudashaag’s first beanstalk on Gateway (Dagudashaag 1331).
