Internal Audit

Internal Audit provides internal audit and consulting services to San Francisco State University and its auxiliary organizations. The Institute of Internal Auditors defines internal auditing as "an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization's operations. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes."

We conduct and report to management on reviews of internal controls in the following categories: operational, financial reporting, and compliance. Internal Audit also performs special investigations of suspected fiscal irregularities and assists in coordinating visits of outside auditors, acting as a liaison between management and auditors as needed.

The University Tax Services unit is part of the Internal Audit Office. Tax Services serves the University and its auxiliaries, and does not provide tax advice to students or other individuals.

Members of the Internal Audit Office include:

Heather Boshears Robbins, Internal Auditor

Young Kim, Tax Specialist

Taver Chong, Associate Internal Auditor

Irene Donner, Administrative Support Coordinator
