LSU Highlights
September 12, 2002
LSU is home to a number of nationally ranked programs,
including internal auditing that is the top program
in the world, with LSU students regularly achieving
the highest score worldwide on the Certified Internal
Auditor examination.
From universities around the globe to international
companies, the LSU Center for Internal Auditing
(CIA) is impacting the way the academic and corporate
world approach internal auditing.
LSU’s CIA has been the international leader
in internal audit education since its inception
in 1985, when the Institute of Internal Auditors
designated the LSUCIA program as the Internal
Audit Pilot School to develop internal audit education.
Since then, Endorsed Internal Audit Programs have
been established at 43 colleges and universities
throughout the world, including France, Jordan,
Lebanon, the Netherlands, Norway, Saudi Arabia,
South Africa, Switzerland, Thailand, and the United
Kingdom.
The international academic effect of LSU’s
Center for Internal Auditing program is evident
through teaching and outreach. A visiting professor
from Thailand coming to LSU to complete the Internal
Auditing Program in order to implement the teaching
methods at her university, and the travels of
the LSUCIA’s director to a university in
South Africa to discuss the center’s programs
and develop a partnership, proves the center’s
commitment to international education.
Impacting the corporate world is another focus
of the center through executive education to internal
auditing practitioners and managers throughout
the world. Vision University, an international
education program established through a joint
venture between the LSUCIA and the Institute of
Internal Auditors, conducts training twice a year
for new chief audit executives of major organizations
from around the globe. Providing periodic training
for the United Nations internal auditing staff
in Geneva creates an additional global impact.
The LSUCIA is dedicated to providing unparalleled
international quality education for its students
by seeking new ways to deliver academic instruction
and bringing real-world best practices to the
program.
