URC Functional Overview

Compliance Program

The University-wide compliance program promotes ethical conduct and strengthens compliance with laws, policies, and rules to enhance integrity and accountability. The program informs management of key compliance areas and expands compliance awareness through reviews, monitoring, training activities, help-line responses, and work groups.

Rules and Standard Administrative Procedures

Our office coordinates the development, review, approval, and distribution of rules and standard administrative procedures that govern Texas A&M University, including the Galveston and Qatar campuses. Current rules and procedures listed on the Rules web page provide direction and guidance in conducting operational activities, clarify roles and responsibilities, mitigate compliance risks, and support strategic objectives.
