In spite of the resource constraints, Members felt that the programmes offered in Economics and in Secretarial Management were at least comparable to those which they saw at the Polytechnic in terms of their broader objectives. The staff are a close-knit group in those two departments and if they could be retained would no doubt develop their research interests and improve still further the quality of their programmes. In Accountancy there is a problem of staffing and the course offered was not comparable in standard to those of the Polytechnic in terms of professional recognition. In Business Management the question rests on the ability to recruit the additional staff which are necessary and to reduce the range of specialisation proposed to the course.
