SIUE’s Kohlberg Receives Institute of Internal Auditors Scholarship
Southern Illinois University Edwardsville School of Business student Eleanor Kohlberg is the scholarship recipient for the St. Louis Chapter of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA).
The Academic Relations Committee for the St. Louis IIA Chapter was impressed by Kohlberg’s enthusiasm for internal audit, making her a deserving recipient for the scholarship. Kohlberg is both honored to be selected and is looking forward to utilizing the awarded resources to continue her education in the internal audit field.
The scholarship provides Kohlberg with a $1,000 award, an invitation to the March 2021 Multi-Track Event, which covers a variety of relevant topics to the internal auditing field. Also included is an all-expenses paid invitation to the 2021 IIA Education Partnership Exchange, a leadership and networking conference for internal audit students, educators and corporations.
A junior accountancy major from Moro, Kohlberg is working toward graduation in May 2022. “I found my passion for internal auditing, because the work is like a puzzle,” she said. “I enjoy sifting through and piecing together information and evidence to work toward the end goal, which is always rewarding.”
Kohlberg has enjoyed her experience in the School of Business. “My professors and the various seminars offered continually push me to new heights,” she said.
