Reorganise university course to allocate work elsewhere (9)
I believe the answer is:
outsource
'work elsewhere' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'reorganise university course to' is the wordplay.
'reorganise' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'university' becomes 'U' (abbreviation as in UMass).
'u'+'course'+'to'='ucourseto'
'ucourseto' with letters rearranged gives 'OUTSOURCE'.
'allocate' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outsource that I've seen before include "Contract (work) to an external supplier" , "Pay someone else to do" , "Place (work) with external contractors" , "Contract with external company" , "Use contractors" .)
