satisfactory progress. The value of the studentship is an annual

new Professional Pathway degree courses.
Professional Pathway is a new and innovative mode of course delivery that
provides City's IT undergraduates with workplace learning and e-learning
within their course. City's well-established courses in Informatics will
be offered in this new mode of study from autumn 2000. With Professional
Pathway, IT undergraduates transfer to relevant employment after one year
of full-time study and complete their degrees by a combination of
day-release and e-learning over up to three more years. For further
details see: http://www.soi.city.ac.uk/liaison/liaison.html
