Crocus Institute of Technology

The Crocus Institute of Technology (テクノロジーのクロッカスインスティトゥト, Gijutsu no Kurokkasu Gakuin), often referred to as Crotech (クロテク, Kuroteku), is a private, magic university with a heavy focus on the sciences and magic engineering, located just outside its namesake of Crocus, Fiore. While originally founded a little over a century ago under a different name as a research laboratory by two Magic Council scientists, after its transition, it has risen to become one of the most prestigious universities in the entire country, excelling in the conventional sciences and magic engineering and theory. It has been home to an array of exceptional students and faculty that have gone on to change the world by diversifying the use of magic and increasing its accessibility to everyday people, whether they can cast a spell or not. In short, it is a haven for young mages dedicated to scientific excellence and honing their skills.

Among its alumni are some of the most accomplished scientists across the continent, including the apex of them all, Feinman, the director of the Magic Council Science Directorate.

 * Crotech is the author's combined equivalent of MIT and Caltech in the United States of America, just for mages and not nearly as advanced.
