MSc 2 Management, specializing in Internal Audit and Risk Management

Visuel MSc Audit

Internal Audit

long regarded only as an agent of repression within organizations, has now becomethe essential and, above all, indispensablefactor in the long-term success of companies, whatever their sector of activity.

With the evolution of various regulations, in France and internationally, governing all economic activities, the development of technical and technological innovation, IT in particular, the increase in competition and the evolution of behaviors, with a significant impact on fraud and CSR, the internal audit department today takes a neuralgic, not to say vital, place within the organization and governance, whether operational or strategic.

More than just controlling, adjusting and sanctioning, the internal auditor embodies the assurance of risk control within the company and in the course of carrying out its activities. They carry out assignments involving reflection, research, studies, project validation (technical, organizational, strategic, M&A, etc.), in full compliance with regulations, in order to complete, increase, optimize and secure operations as far as possible.

The MSC AIMR

provides teaching covering the entire spectrum of internal auditing assignments, thanks to the methodological, technical and practical approaches of its teaching staff, made up of university researchers, internal and external audit managers from major companies and audit firms, specialist consultants and entrepreneurs.

The MSCAIMR also has a partnership withIFACI (Institut Français de l'Audit et du Contrôle Interne), which has over 6,000 members, and whose membership fee for the academic year is paid by the IAE.
It provides access to the organization's reference frameworks and database, as well as access to theCRIPP exam (Cadre de Référence Internationale des Pratiques Professionnelles), approved by the Institute of Internal Auditors.
As part of its Responsible Commitment and Humanism assessment module, a partnership has been set up with L'Ecole de la Deuxième Chance, with the support of EY, for short training assignments.
The program also offers the opportunity to attend numerous conferences and presentations on key themes, led by professionals in the field, thanks in particular to its active partnership with IFACI.
