Mission & Vision Statements

The UWPD supports the University's academic and research Mission by protecting the life and property of our citizens and visitors.

Our Vision is that the University is a diverse and ever-changing community. This requires constant efforts by the Police Department to partner with and educate the community to deter, reduce and solve crimes, and to resolve issues through modern policing. This will be accomplished through:

• strengthening our partnership with the community through community-oriented policing practices;
• achieving operational excellence through improving efficiency in operations and aligning services with resources; and
• pursuing innovation through the responsible use of current technology.
