Emergency and security
Campus security officers are available day and night to support students, staff and visitors.
Need urgent assistance?
Security officers are on campus day and night. They provide a broad range of services and are trained to administer first aid. If there's an emergency, don't hesitate to call.
Our security staff
We want you to feel safe and supported when you're on campus. Our security officers are approachable and helpful – and calm in an emergency.
They're trained to respond to a wide range of concerns (urgent and non-urgent). If you're not sure what to do, they can assess the situation and take action.
Non-urgent assistance
Our licensed security officers can:
- escort you to your car or building
- respond to incidents
- lock and secure buildings
- give first aid.
Looking for medical care?
If you need non-urgent medical care, please visit our health services webpage to find out what we offer and how to make an appointment.
