Isso é um pouco exagerado, mas pode ser a Craft Sequence de Max Gladstone (especificamente o primeiro livro, Three Parts Dead).
A god has died, and it’s up to Tara, first-year associate in the
international necromantic firm of Kelethres, Albrecht, and Ao, to
bring Him back to life before His city falls apart.
Her client is Kos, recently deceased fire god of the city of Alt
Coulumb. Without Him, the metropolis’s steam generators will shut
down, its trains will cease running, and its four million citizens
will riot.
Tara’s job: resurrect Kos before chaos sets in. Her only help:
Abelard, a chain-smoking priest of the dead god, who’s having an
understandable crisis of faith.
When Tara and Abelard discover that Kos was murdered, they have to
make a case in Alt Coulumb’s courts—and their quest for the truth
endangers their partnership, their lives, and Alt Coulumb’s slim hope
of survival.
Set in a phenomenally built world in which justice is a collective
force bestowed on a few, craftsmen fly on lightning bolts, and
gargoyles can rule cities, Three Parts Dead introduces readers to an
ethical landscape in which the line between right and wrong blurs.
Tara pode realizar necromancia, talvez outros tipos de magia (não me lembro de imediato) e ela tem uma amiga, Abelard, que é uma espécie de engenheiro / monge.
A universidade de quem Tara se forma está no céu e ela quase é expulsa (literalmente) pouco antes da formatura.
