The Office of Audit and Compliance helps Mason achieve our mission while enhancing and protecting the university’s value by providing risk-based assurance, advice, and insight.
We assist the Board of Visitors, and the Board’s Audit, Risk, and Compliance Committee, with fulfilling their oversight responsibilities. We report directly to the Audit, Risk, and Compliance Committee of the Board.
