»Office of Institutional Compliance and Internal Audit

Welcome to the Office of Institutional Compliance and Internal Audit. We provide services in distinct, yet related disciplines. Our purpose is to support the mission of Chapman University by:

  • Promoting a university-wide culture of compliance and ethics.
  • Providing an independent and objective process for monitoring and evaluating the reliability and integrity of financial and operating information as well as the means used to identify, measure, classify, and report such information.
  • Serving and safeguarding our community by recognizing risks in what we do and by managing those risks by communicating and educating our community to promote an awareness of compliance risk and the objective of our compliance activities.
