On auditing - a brief note

There are three major branches in auditing: internal audit, external audit and information systems audit. Thus, students in accounting, business managementt and information systems all study auditing and could adopt auditing approaches in their final year dissertation works. I provide some relevant references to indicate the scope of the study:
