UNCG Police

The University of North Carolina at Greensboro Police Department’s goal is to support the mission of UNCG by working to create a safe and secure environment. The men and women who comprise the UNCG Police Department are fully trained law enforcement professionals.

The UNCG Police Department became operational as its own police agency in 1988. Since that time it has grown to its present authorized strength of 34 sworn police officers and 21 non-sworn employees.

The Department is organized into three divisions: Administrative, Field Operations, and Special Services. The UNCG Police Department is located at the following locations: Tate and Spring Garden Street—Main Police Station, and the rear of North Spencer Hall on North Drive—Police substation.

Although similar in appearance to other law enforcement organizations, its main emphasis is one of anticipation and prevention rather than mere reaction to criminal incidents and events that are hazardous to public safety. The UNCG Police Department has enacted numerous safety programs that are available to the students, faculty, and staff at no cost to them.
