===== Summary =====
The **University of Dalmuir** is the third major university of the [[:skyss:places:daelriata|Kingdom]], located in the port city of [[:skyss:places:dalmuir|Dalmuir]]. Founded by the first Earl of Dalmuir, it is uniquely focused on the practical application of knowledge, particularly in fields relating to the sea and industry.

===== Description =====

==== Origin as an Outer College ====
The university began its life as an "outer college" of the [[:skyss:places:dalreoch:university|University of Dalreoch]].
