Fraud issues – ranging from identify theft to corporate accounting fraud – will be the focus of a day long UT Dallas Fraud Summit being held for the third straight year at the UT Dallas School of Management.

The summit will be held on March 28 in the Davidson Auditorium in the School of Management building on the UT Dallas campus.

Co-sponsored by the School of Management’s Internal Auditing Education Program (IAEP), the conference brings together a cross-section of government and law enforcement representatives.

Speakers will discuss key issues involving economic crime, including money laundering and Internet crime, as well as the latest fraud schemes and fraud prevention techniques.

“The purpose of the conference is twofold: to discuss the most critical issues facing professionals in the internal auditing field and gain new insights from industry experts, and also to raise money for the IAEP program,” said Mark Salamasick, director of the School of Management’s IAEP program.

All proceeds from the conference, Salamasick said, benefit the IAEP program. The IAEP at UT Dallas is one of the world’s premier institutions for internal auditing education.

In only five years, it has become the second-largest university program of its kind in the United States.
