About Audit Services
The Office of Audit Services is an independent appraisal activity established within the University. Our purpose is to assist management in the accomplishment of its goals and objectives. However, we have NO authority to direct management's activities or to dictate departmental policies or procedures.
Audit Services reviews and evaluates the adequacy and effectiveness of the systems of internal control provided by the University. In addition, we have committed more of our resources to provide consulting to departmental management on the efficiency and effectiveness of their operating practices.
The Director of Audit Services reports to the Vice President for Finance and the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees. The Director also has periodic meetings with the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees. This reporting structure is necessary for Audit Services to be independent of the activities reviewed. Audit Services is also authorized to have full, free and unrestricted access to all University and affiliated corporations' functions, records, property, and personnel.
Our
Mission Statement explains in detail our purpose, objectives, and
authority. In addition, our department is guided by the Standards for
the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing and the Code of Ethics,
as set forth by the Institute of Internal Auditors. If you would like a
copy of our Mission Statement, the Code of Ethics, or the Standards,
please contact any member of the audit staff.
