Contemporary Auditing

Michael Knapp has taught undergraduate and graduate auditing courses for more than 35 years. He has developed dozens of online CPE courses that focus on a wide range of auditing topics, including the COSO internal control framework, the most common types of accounting frauds and the impact cognitive biases have on the quality of professional audit services. Professor Knapp has also testified in several major litigation cases involving accounting and auditing issues. For three years he served as a consultant with the FBI on a major white-collar criminal case. He has spoken at a national conference attended by more than 500 FBI agents and other federal law enforcement officers. His honors at the University of Oklahoma include, among many others, the Harold E. Hackler Outstanding M.B.A. Professor (determined by a vote of O.U.’s M.B.A. students), the Outstanding Oklahoma Accounting Educator (awarded by the Oklahoma Society of C.P.A.s), the Delta Sigma Pi Professor of the Year (awarded by the O.U. undergraduate business students’ honor society), the David Ross Boyd Professorship (a university-wide designation for teaching excellence awarded to one professor annually) and the McLaughlin Chair in Business Ethics.
