The University Police Department employs full-time, professional police officers, certified by the Alaska Police Standards Council. They enforce Alaska State Statutes, investigating incidents, arrest perpetrators of criminal activity and generally maintain order on University property.
Officers also provide special services unique to the University setting. Those services include maintaining security of University buildings, providing crime prevention classes to students and employees, providing safety escorts on the Anchorage campus, vehicle and room unlocks, and vehicle jump starts.
The department is open 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. UPD can be reached at 786-1120 or by using one of 15 emergency call boxes placed throughout campus. Calls made from elevator emergency telephones are also routed directly to the UPD switchboard.
