At a Glance
Freie Universität Berlin’s Office of Internal Audit (Innenrevision, IR) is an independent regulatory body that specifically supports and advises the Executive Board. It also offers informational and advisory services to other university members. Internal Audit works on issues across all areas of Freie Universität, operating on an autonomous, independent level.
The office’s main purpose is to improve the university’s performance and fulfillment of its responsibilities while maintaining efficiency, minimizing risks, and preventing corruption. Through focused and effective auditing practices, the Office of Internal Audit contributes substantially to the successful implementation of the university’s goals, economical budgeting and spending, and increased transparency – a process that goes far beyond merely pointing out weaknesses.
Further responsibilities of the Office of Internal Audit include processing and coordinating audits by the Berlin State Court of Auditors (Rechnungshof von Berlin), and inspecting reports on expenditures of external funds. Fees paid in connection with additional work at the university’s veterinary clinics are also audited by the Office of Internal Audit.
