Security arrangements in the University aim to protect people and property. These include alarms and CCTV systems, as well as a uniform patrol service 24/7.
Security staff are highly trained and provide a focal point for all incidents and the implementation of emergency procedures.
However it is also the responsibility of every individual working, visiting or studying at the University to be vigilant about security. Take as much care of your personal belongings and the equipment in your department as you would at home.
