Like all units at WVU, the Internal Audit Office has limited
resources to perform its duties. To help
us focus our time, we conduct an annual risk assessment process.
In
April and May of each year, Internal Audit conducts a risk assessment to
evaluate the areas that may pose the greatest risks to the University and
formulate an audit plan for the year ahead. This process includes a large number of
interviews with senior leadership across the University.
Our
audit responsibilities span the entire University. We may conduct audits to
address risks in all areas, including but not limited to: operational and
business processes, information systems and security, financial reporting, and
compliance areas (Federal, State, local, NCAA, etc.)
