BATON ROUGE – LSU Rucks Department of Management Ph.D. candidate Yves Damoiseau received the highest student score on the international Certified Internal Auditor Exam administered in November 2008.

LSU CIA Director Glenn Sumners lauded Damoiseau’s achievement.

“Yves is a testament to what commitment and hard work can accomplish,” Sumners said. “He accepted the challenge to pass the CIA exam and achieved much more. The dedication and perseverance of our students is not surprising to me, but their accomplishments never cease to amaze me.”

A native of Germany, Damoiseau graduated this semester and has already started working with Goldman Sachs in New York, N.Y. He is the 17th LSU Center for Internal Auditing student to achieve this designation and, as part of the award, received an all expense-paid trip to the Internal Auditors International Conference in Johannesburg, South Africa, this month to be honored.

The Center for Internal Auditing at LSU’s E. J. Ourso College of Business is a multidisciplinary program with students from more than 30 different business and non-business majors that is considered the premier internal audit program in the world. The model for similar programs in other schools and countries, LSUCIA provides training to graduate and undergraduate students for developing an understanding about the internal auditing profession.
