Overview

The aim of the Fraud Examination and Financial Forensics major from The City University of New York is to present a more comprehensive view of fraud that extends beyond the limited framework of any single disciplinary framework. Students will have ample opportunity to choose from among a variety of existing fraud-related courses while being required to learn the essential foundational competencies deemed necessary for entry into the anti-fraud professions.

Learning outcomes

Evaluate symptoms of fraud and conduct fraud risk assessments based on an evaluation of internal control structures.

Effectively use technologies to locate, access, analyze, interpret and report on data using facts and appropriate statistical techniques.

Develop an investigative methodology based on the fraud theory and using both inductive and deductive reasoning.

Demonstrate knowledge of professional rules of conduct and ethical principles.

Communicate findings of a forensic investigation clearly and accurately, both orally and in writing. This includes learning the opportunities and challenges posed by inter-professional and interdisciplinary communication and how to bridge professional frames of reference to facilitate interpersonal collaboration and communication among lawyers, accountants, law enforcement officers, and investigators.
Students will also demonstrate some knowledge of each discipline’s lexicon to aid communication among the various disciplines. Students will participate in an interdisciplinary team to develop a unique and creative pro-active fraud prevention program that incorporates and integrates their knowledge of law, criminology, the criminal justice system, and accounting.
