Fiscal Services

Controller’s Office

We establish and monitor the university’s internal control framework, collaborate with university units to establish fiscal processes, and provide guidance to academic and administrative units related to administrative policies and procedures. We maintain close working relationships with the Office of Budget and Planning, the Office of Sponsored Programs, and Human Resources and Payroll. 

Our goal is to provide excellent customer service and minimize costs through demonstrating consistent progress toward increasing flexibility, reducing administrative burden, eliminating “no value added” efforts, and automating transaction processing.
