Internal Audit

Internal Auditing is an independent and objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and enhance the University’s operations. It plays a key role in supporting the achievement of the University’s objectives by ensuring that systems, processes, and governance structures operate effectively and efficiently. Internal audits are conducted by professionals with a comprehensive understanding of the University’s business culture, systems, and operations.

The internal audit function provides assurance that internal controls are adequate to mitigate risks, that governance processes are functioning optimally, and that institutional goals are being met. Core responsibilities include evaluating emerging technologies, analysing strategic opportunities, and examining global trends that may impact the University. Additionally, internal auditors assess risk, ethics, quality, and operational efficiency, while delivering clear, accurate, and insightful communication.

This breadth of engagement affords internal auditors a broad perspective across the institution, positioning them as a vital resource for executive management and the Board of Trustees in achieving the University’s strategic aims.
