Federal President Dr. Heinz Fischer congratulates MMag. Monika Maria Wurzer in the course of the Theodor Körner award ceremony 2010
The Theodor Körner fund advances young Austrian scientists and artists which already have performed excellent work and from which important contributions respective the particular discipline can be expected in future.
Once a year the best and most innovative works are awarded a support price in the course of a celebratory meeting in the University of Vienna. This support price is one of the most renowned interdisciplinary prices in the Austrian science. The projects handed in are valued by an impartial scientific advisory board composed of leading science and art experts.
This year the award ceremony took place on April, 29 in the president chambers of the Hofburg in Vienna and was effected by the Federal President Dr. Heinz Fischer. The dissertation “The cooperative business administration audit. Development of a general audit model.” by MMag. Monika Maria Wurzer, doctoral candidate at the Institute for accountancy, taxation and auditing of the University Innsbruck has been awarded. In her scientific paper MMag. Monika Maria Wurzer has developed an audit model for cooperative business administration and conduct audit that allows defining the basics of this audit mode for the first time. In this audit model basic criteria resp. parameter of a cooperative business administration and conduct audit and its connections are pooled what from an evaluation system of a cooperative business administration and conduct audit results. The audit model needs to be seen as basic idea in the form of a meta standard. This basic approach allows a cross-national and interbranch use of the concepts. Hence, the results of the research are of special interest also outside of the cooperative context and have the potential to support the enhancements of the traditional auditing.
Special thanks for the realization of the dissertation go to the “International Institute for cooperative research in the Alpes” (“Internatioales Institut für Genossenschaftsforschung im Alpenraum - IGA”) and Mag. Arnulf Perkounigg, chairman of the board of the society IGA and director of the Raiffeisenverband Tirol.
