Welcome
On behalf of the entire University of Houston Department of Public Safety (UHDPS), I would like to welcome each of you to UH as we start a new academic year. And, as a UH Alumnus myself, I congratulate you on your choice of where to pursue your academic career. Please take a minute to check out our website. It provides information on our department, such as who we are, crime on campus, services we provide the campus community as well as contact information.
The driving force behind the UHDPS is maintaining a safe environment for all individuals who have a legitimate purpose for being on campus. Unfortunately, this is something that we can not do alone. We ask all members of our campus community to take responsibility for themselves, and the safety of their work place and personal property. How do you do this? By being cognizant of your surroundings on campus at all times and reporting suspicious persons, things or situations to the UHDPS immediately.
Lastly, I hope your stay on campus, whether it is for a semester or a career is enjoyable and that you are successful in all your endeavors. Go Coogs!
