About UD Police Services

The University of Delaware Police Department is charged with providing a safe and secure environment for our campus community. All members of the University Police Department are committed to providing proactive, progressive and professional law enforcement services.

In addition to providing traditional police services on campus, department staff are trained to understand the pressures and needs of students, faculty and staff. The department’s mission is not only enforce the law but also to educate students, faculty, staff and the visiting public as to how, in cooperation with the police, they can be better prepared to enhance their personal safety.

An integral part of the educational process, UD police officers are often called upon to speak on a variety of topics, including sexual assault, drugs, crime prevention and personal and traffic safety. Our officers strive to develop and maintain a positive relationship with students, faculty and staff in order to ensure the safety and cooperation of the entire campus community. Whatever the assignment, wherever the opportunity, University Police officers perform their duties in support of the educational mission of the University of Delaware.
