Internal Auditor

The primary purpose of the Office of Internal Audit is to provide independent, objective assurance and consulting services designed to add value and improve the operations of Fayetteville State University. The Office of Internal Audit assists the university in meeting its strategic goals and objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.

They provide recommendations to management to make improvements in areas where opportunities or efficiencies are identified.

These areas can include:
