Employee Code of Conduct & Ethics
Our Compliance Program
Promote Integrity
The Division of Institutional Compliance & Privacy promotes a culture of compliance and ethics at Auburn University.
Our Compliance Partners manage substantive compliance areas to address specific legal and regulatory requirements. Institutional Compliance & Privacy's role is to centralize the information and provide coordination to ongoing efforts, and assess Auburn University's overall compliance performance. With this goal, we can provide to Senior Administration and the Board of Trustees consolidated, organized and risk-based information in an objective manner.
Our Compliance Program is built on the elements of an effective compliance program as established in the U.S. Federal Sentencing Guidelines (§8B2.1).
