Types of Audit courses
1. Environmental audit is a process of extracting information about
an Institution and Organization that provides a realistic assessment
of how the campus surroundings affect the environment and make
sure that their activities should not harm the environment. To
ensure that the environmental is neat and clean, environmental
pollution impact, carbon dioxide emission level, solid state
management, disposal of sewage and waste materials and plastic
use in the campus will be assessed.
2. Green campus audit is a type of assessment to ensure that the
Institution and Organization campus is greenish in terms of
planting a large number of trees and lawns in the campus. To
ensure that the list of plants and animals / birds available in the
campus, biodiversity conservation, water irrigation system,
recycling of water, rain harvesting system, site preservation, soil
erosion control and landscape management will be evaluated.
3. Energy audit ensures that the campus of Institutions and
Organizations is involving energy savings and consumption
towards the roadmap of the State development economy by
assessing the electric current usage. To ensure that the air
ventilation and day-lighting facilities, sodium vapor lights and
LED bulbs, power generators, UPS, solar systems and renewable
energy utilization, air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned
buildings will be assessed.
4. Hygiene audit is a process of extracting information about a
hygienic environment that provides a realistic assessment of how
the Institutions and Organizations are giving personal hygiene to
stakeholders. The hygienic management system, cleanliness

detergents, sanitizer, dryer, tissue roll, etc. in wash basins, food handlers equipped with suitable
aprons, gloves, headgear, etc. mosquito and cockroach traps on pest control, practice of removal
of food wastes and other refuse and napkin disposal facility will be noted.
5. Waste Management audit covers water, soil, solid, e-wastes,
plastics and biomedical wastes in which the physico-chemical
properties of wastes are being analyzed. Water conservation
strategies, factors affecting per capita demand of water
consumption, assessment, handling, storage, transportation, origin
of wastes and disposal methods of wastes were studies in brief.
Recycling of solid wastes and wastewaters and then used for
irrigation purposes are also investigated.
