University Ethics and Compliance Office

The University Ethics and Compliance Office will support administration of the System and its universities in fulfilling their missions in an environment based on ethical conduct and compliance with applicable laws, rules, and guidance. The University Ethics and Compliance Office is the designated liaison to receive and, as necessary, coordinate and/or refer the investigation of fraud, waste, abuse, mismanagement, misconduct, or other violations of applicable laws, rules or guidelines.

The University Ethics and Compliance Office staff manage and respond to the internally managed Ethics Line and designated ethicsofficer@uillinois.edu email account. Furthermore, University Ethics and Compliance Office staff are responsible for the development and administration of the Illinois State Officials and Employees Ethics Act mandatory annual ethics training and the Illinois Governmental Ethics Act mandated Statement of Economic Interests review and filing process.

Ensuring effective ethics and compliance programs throughout the System is a collaborative effort involving System and university administration, the University-wide Compliance Advisory Committee, managers of all levels, and employees.
