One approach is to look for directed graph drawing programs.
These take as input a simple list of the nodes you connect, e.g.
QUB -> FLES;
QUB -> FMED;
FLES -> SME;
FLES ->SLAW;
SME -> MGT;
SME -> ECO;
SME -> FIN;
SME -> ACC;
SME -> IS;
The program then generates a connected graph from the list
of nodes and links.
One such program is graphviz. It can produce output in PostScript,
PNG and other formats. See http://www.graphviz.org/. It will
even run dynamically on a web server (although it is slow enough
I wouldn't do that unless the organization is changing every 30
minutes).
You can find several other such connected graph drawing packages
