The responsibility of Internal Audit is to serve the university in a manner that is
consistent with the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) promulgated
by the Institute of Internal Auditors.
Internal Audit provides independent, objective assurance and advisory services that
help Wichita State University achieve its objectives and fulfill its vision.
The Director of Internal Audit reports directly to the University President on all
audit matters, as required by the Kansas Board of Regents' Internal Audit Policy.
WSU Internal Audit was the first Regents' university audit department to undergo a
Quality Assurance Review, a review similar to an accreditation visit. WSU Internal
Audit earned the peer reviewers' highest rating.
"My goal as Director of Internal Audit is to help foster a risk-intelligent community
that is alert to and proactively manages risk at WSU."
Chris Cavanaugh, Director of Internal Audit
