The Incorporated Law Society is pleased to announce that the Bank of Ireland - Area West - has offered to sponsor a solicitor based within the area West so that he or she may attend a two-year programme at University College Galway leading to the MBA Degree. The sponsorship is to the extent of £2,000 per annum for the two years of the MBA Degree programme. The programme will commence in the academic year beginning October 1990. The Society wishes to record its appreciation of the Bank's generosity in making available this endowment. The timetable for classes leading to the MBA Degree is arranged so as to permit candidates to attend the course with the minimum interruption to their work responsibilities during the 25 weeks of each academic year in which lectures take place. Classes are normally held each week from 10.00 am on Firday and on Saturday up to 1.00 pm - a total of about 10 lecture hours per week. The Society is particularly anxious to promote among solicitors expertise in business methods. Any solicitor within the Bank's area West, namely the counties of Donegal, Galway, Laois, Leitrim, Longford, Mayo, Offaly, Roscommon, Sligo and Westmeath, interested in pursuing the MBA Degree programme in U.C.G. should note that application forms - available from Mr. Aidan Daly, Department of Marketing, University College Galway - should be returned to U.C.G. early in February to meet the College's closing date. The identity of the solicitor to receive sponsorship from the Bank will be known shortly before the programme starts in mid- October 1990.
