How to unlock the Gift to the World achievement in Prey - Definitive Guide
If you are fast enough and reach his room you can find the safe before the music stops but if you don't make it in time just simply replay the audio in DATA - AUDIO LOG. After you have the item make your way back to Igwe in your office and the achievement/trophy will unlock.
So I ended up getting this quest just as the solution mentions, but when I entered the Crew Quarters I failed the "Cook's Request" mission and got the achievement for killing him. I never went back to fix the kitchen for him because I stupidly thought I needed Repair to do it and I wasn't using Neuromods, so when Dahl shows up his Military Operators kill the cook and Skillet. As I was trying to get through the game without killing humans, I wasn't sure if this would count against me, so I reloaded and avoided the area and moved the rest of the game forward. I finished the game and got the achievements for not killing humans and not using Neuromods, and then I reloaded an old save so I could acquire some abilities.
However, before I made the save I was using, I chose to incapacitate Dahl and allow Dr. Igwe to remove his Neuromods. So I get the mission again as I approach Crew Quarters, acquire the thing for Igwe and the mission tells me to meet Igwe in my office. However, when I get to the Lobby, the quest marker is not in my office, in fact it isn't anywhere. So I look Igwe up on the Security Terminal and his tracking bracelet puts him in Neuromod Division. I head over there and, sure enough, there he is still standing with Dahl just like they were when I left after he took Dahl's Neuromods.
However, he will not talk to me. There is not a prompt for a conversation and I do have the item he wants in my inventory. I believe he and Dahl are supposed to move to Shuttle Bay at some point, but I don't know if that happening will allow the dialogue to give him the item to come up. I finished the game using the Nullwave device and never had to go to Shuttle Bay since I didn't blow up Talos 1. I will try to see what happens if I blow up the station instead and see if he'll talk to me in Shuttle Bay, but I an very dubious that he will since the text of the quest specifically says to meet him in my office.
So, bottom line: try to get this out of the way before Igwe leaves your office somehow.
This achievement requires you to have saved Dr. Igwe (see "Adrift" for additional info). Late in the game, Igwe will contact you and ask you to retrieve an item from his room in Crew Quarters. Once there, replay the audio file he sent you to open the hidden compartment behind the poster on his wall. Grab the Connectome and return to Igwe in your office to unlock the achievement.
