Topics include audit planning and risk assessment, including evaluation of internal controls; collection, analysis and evaluation of audit evidence; auditing procedures, tests, and documentation, including sampling techniques; required disclosures and reports; professional standards and ethics; legal obligations of auditors; and corporate governance. Students will also analyze auditing situations through case studies, which utilize a broad base of knowledge and will culminate in both written reports and oral presentations.
