The University of Kentucky has been recognized by the Institute of Internal Auditors a part of the Internal Audit Academic Awareness Program. UK joins approximately 60 other universities worldwide in being a member of this program.

The Institute of Internal Auditors (The IIA) commends Institutions of higher learning (universities) that promote internal audit awareness and education through their curricula. The IIA understands that it requires dedication and university resources to support internal audit education. The IIA also understands that not all universities are able to devote the same commitment to teaching internal auditing. However, any commitment to building awareness of internal auditing, regardless of magnitude, can make a huge difference to a student searching for a career.

The IIA, the internationally recognized global voice for the profession and principal educator has stepped forward to assist universities in this effort by providing a program to recognize the various degrees of commitment and effort universities are making to provide students with the information and skill sets necessary to be able to choose from a variety of career paths.  Learn more here.
