8) Given an idealized University pictured as attached, would this most likely be studied in one of the buildings to the upper left of the red line (as opposed to the lower right), if it were to be studied at a Uni?

Yes.

9) Given the same Uni, would it likely be studied in one of the odd numbered quadrants?
If yes, I yield to someone else for the next question. (But there is no time out.)

No.

Not maths. So six buildings left in quadrant two.
We've had something to do with computers.
Not a matter, action or energy, so maybe not physics.
The three on the left look most likely to me.

10) Given the same uni, would it likely be studied in (the Biology building) OR (the Chemistry building)?

11) Is it a human skill or human creative process? (By which I mean either a mental and/or physical skill like programming or building, or something like designing or composing, but not meaning something like Mathematics or a computer program which you study or which you have created.)

No, it is not a skill or creative process.

12) Does this involve the study, examination, consideration, etc. of physical things?

Recap:
1) Is it some type of action? No.
2) Does it consist of any form of matter/energy? No.
3) Is it something that would cease to exist within 100 years if humans suddenly ceased to exist? A difficult question for this thing, but I have to go with: No, it wouldn't cease to exist. But that might depend on your definition of existing.
4) Is it a mathematical concept? No.
5) Could the answer be a suitable answer (validly fit) for the previous round of 20 questions? No.
6)is it's meaning derived from a mix of other languages? No, the word is derived from one language.
7) Was this created or invented by mankind? Yes.
8-10) Given an idealized University pictured here, if it were to be studied at a Uni, this would most likely be studied in one of these buildings: Physics, Math, Comp Sci, Geology, Engineering.
11) Is it a human skill or human creative process? (By which I mean either a mental and/or physical skill like programming or building, or something like designing or composing, but not meaning something like Mathematics or a computer program which you study or which you have created.) No, it is not a skill or creative process.
12) Does this involve the study, examination, consideration, etc. of physical things? No.

There are several questions which, if slightly different, or if I included some extra related information, would be very revealing to the solution. Also, someone has mentioned something very close to the solution.
