INQ - Factions 03a, Institutions

Due to the wide and varied fields of scientific research done within the Echelon, a system of Institutions was set up to allow easy management of resources. Each Institution governs it's own field of science, and is led by an Overseer. The Overseers of every Institution form the Council.

Listed below are some of the Institutions.

Institution of Engineering
Overseer : Walter Schmidt
The largest Institution, their main contribution comes from their bio-engineering research, specifically the breakthroughs in cybernetic organisms, or cyborgs. Cyborgs form a large component of the Echelon's fighting strength.

Institution of Computer Sciences
Overseer : Zhang Lin
Their highly advanced Robotics provide the Echelon with all the assisted manpower it requires. A wide variety of combat models form an able complement to their armada.

Institution of Psychology
Overseer : Stefan Oslowieck
Leaders in Psychic research. Three different departments exist for it; Kinesis, Stasis, and Genesis. They often conduct experiments on live subjects captured from the wastelands.

Institution of Chemistry
Overseer: Carl Alder
Unrestrained research into the effects of chemicals has led them to create many volatile compounds. Bio-weapons, enhancement drugs, and even substances that cause severe mutations form just some of their bizarre repertoire.
