Staffordshire University and the Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland
The University and the Institute intend to continue their collaboration, however, and were planning to develop the present franchise as a joint award at the end of the 1998-99 session.
The team was satisfied that when students in Dublin did switch their mode of attendance, the fact was notified by staff at the Institute to the University through informal rather than formal channels and that, in consequence, some changes in student status may well be decided outside the formal arrangements that govern the franchises.
