About Us
Internal Audit Services (IAS) is located in Old Main. The chief audit executive (CAE) plans and manages the annual work plan, maintaining a balance between audit, investigative and advisory services. The CAE reports to the president and the Board of Trustees through the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee. IAS helps the university accomplish its objectives by evaluating and improving the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes.
