Internal Control is a process affected by OSU administration, faculty, and staff that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of objectives in the following categories:
Effectiveness and efficiency of operations
Reliability of Financial Reporting
Compliance with applicable laws and regulations
All levels of University management (President, Provosts, Deans, central administrators, college business managers, and department heads) are stewards of OSU's financial resources and are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control processes that contribute to the achievement of the University's mission, financial goals, and minimization of risk.
