introduction (title)

The universities of the North East have collaborated in a major project which provides high speed IT links via the North East Metropolitan Area Network (NorMAN) to the five Universities and 24 FE and 6th-form colleges

NorMAN contributes significantly to the JANET (Joint Academic Network) strategy of providing a national multi-service broadband communications backbone, and provides regional communications linkage that interconnects the five universities.
