School III — Propulsion, Engineering & Technical Systems

School III is the engineering backbone of KOTA. Officers learn to keep KAVOE vessels and installations functioning under the extreme conditions of deep-space operations — including battle damage, system degradation, and prolonged isolation from resupply. The school treats Gorbillian and Thrishton propulsion as distinct disciplines, reflecting their fundamentally different engineering principles. Graduates command engineering departments that may hold the survival of an entire crew in their hands.
