University Safety and Security
University Public Safety 

University Public Safety is committed to working in partnership with students, faculty, and staff to provide a safe, enjoyable, and fulfilling university experience. As part of our community policing philosophy, students have become a central component of our operations.  Public Safety employs over 200 students who have adopted the motto of "Students Serving Students."

Campus safety is of paramount importance, but security depends on everyone knowing what to do in case of an emergency and taking ownership in their own personal preparedness. To view the University's Emergency Action Plans, please visit emergency.rutgers.edu. To view crime prevention tips and safety precautions, visit https://ipo.rutgers.edu/publicsafety/crime-prevention.

Rutgers University Police Department  

The internationally accredited Rutgers University Police Department (RUPD) operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to provide the university community with a full range of police and security services. RUPD maintains multiple fully staffed police headquarters. Accordingly, nonemergency contact information varies by location. We encourage you to program these phone numbers into your cell phone.

For an emergency (Police, Fire, Medical) dial 9-1-1

This app features real-time chat interactions with a member of the Rutgers University 911 Communication Center. For additional information, visit https://ipo.rutgers.edu/publicsafety/rupd/text.  

Safety Escorts  

RUPD provides escorts to students, faculty, and staff upon request. The escorts, primarily walking, provide our community with personalized service to their vehicles, campus residence, or the university's mass transit system. 

    Call the RUPD on your campus and provide your university location. 

    A public safety representative will be dispatched to escort you. 

    Escorts may not be "reserved" in advance.

Vehicle Lockouts and Jump Starts  

University Public Safety will assist students, visitors, and faculty/staff with motor vehicle lockouts at Rutgers University as well as the surrounding areas. Public Safety also offers jump starts to individuals needing assistance with weak or dead batteries. To initiate a request, call the RUPD Communications Center at (732) 932-7211.

Emergency Services

To obtain more information about emergency services, please visit rues.rutgers.edu or call 848-932-4800.

Emergency Management  

The Office of Emergency Management (OEM) serves all university locations and works to prepare the university to properly respond to and address emergencies that threaten public safety. These emergencies may include, but are not limited to, severe weather conditions, major power failures, fires and explosions, transportation accidents, other accidents involving mass casualties, release of hazardous materials, violent crimes, civil disorder, bomb threats, public health emergencies, acts of terrorism, and other events that could pose a significant threat to the university community. University emergency planning focuses on the areas of preparedness, prevention, mitigation, response, and recovery. 

You are encouraged to take an active approach in your personal preparedness by reviewing the university's emergency action plans at emergency.rutgers.edu.

Notification to the Rutgers Community About an Immediate Threat  

The university's emergency notification system uses many different and overlapping mechanisms to provide time-critical information to the Rutgers community, as no single mechanism is sufficient to provide blanket notification. Methods include email, website announcements, TV, radio, and text messaging to cell phones, as well as low-tech mass communications such as electronic signs, bullhorns, and police car speaker systems.

Additional messages and updates may be posted on the Rutgers University-New Brunswick operating page at campusstatus.rutgers.edu; or the Rutgers University main webpage at https://www.rutgers.edu/status

To update your information or to sign up to receive emergency text notifications, please visit ens.rutgers.edu.
