Haven University

Haven University occupies a large campus at the edge of Haven. It grew around the original Emergence research base. Several parts of the first settlement remain in daily use.

The campus contains separate departments, courtyards, laboratories, residences, gardens, and public classrooms. Pedestrian routes connect the campus to nearby districts and city transport.

Major departments cover space, physics, governance, ecology, engineering, medicine, ethics, media, computation, architecture, and civic systems.

Former Emergence Research Base

The Emergence Research Base opened after the founders left Earth. Staff there tested habitats, reviewed safety systems, and organised the first public bodies. The core technology had already been invented and tested on Earth.

The base soon became part of the growing university. Its main laboratory now serves as Lab 1 in the space and physics department. The old canteen forms part of a larger dining hall.

Students and staff still use these rooms each day. Their continued use ties modern Luminous research to the first years on Emergence.
