The amalgamation of the University of Otago Accountancy and Business Law department and the Finance and Quantitative Analysis department will result in the loss of almost ten jobs, the Otago Daily Times reported last week.
9.8 Full-Time Equivalent Positions (FTE) in teaching and administration will be cut in the merger. All employees will be invited to reapply for positions in the new department. The ODT reported that the mood among staff in the departments was described as “pretty negative” by an unnamed staff member.
