General Ministry Institutes

The General Ministry Institutes were various centers of learning and research that were funded by the Galactic Republic General Ministry and then decades later by the New Republic General Ministry.

History

Prior to the Clone Wars, the General Ministry slashed funding for the General Ministry Institutes in some cases by as much as 60 percent. This caused many of the institutes to look towards private donors for funding.

In the last years of the Old Republic, the institutes included:

• Extragalactic Society
• Fondor Academy of Engineering and Design
• Mrlsst Center for Linguistic Studies

New Republic

During the New Republic the institutes included:

• Astrographic Survey Institute
• Extragalactic Society
• Fondor Academy of Engineering and Design
• Institute for Sentient Studies
