HIRING, RECRUITING AND TRAINING
The North Carolina State University Police Department consists of 59 fully sworn Law Enforcement Officers and 10 Emergency Communications Officers. The NCSU Police Department maintains three divisions, a Field Operations Division, a Support Services Division, and and Administrative Services Division.
CRIME PREVENTION AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
The Crime Prevention Unit acts as a liaison between the Police Department and the campus community. Officers provide education outside the classroom to help prevent students, faculty, staff, and visitors from becoming victims of criminal activity.
K9 UNIT
The Police K-9 Unit supports the University community by conducting explosive security sweeps of high occupancy locations and events. The K-9 and police officer handler form a team that is trained to detect explosive materials carried by or on persons, in vehicles, in buildings as well as outdoor environments. They often support large sporting events and also respond to bomb threats within the University system. They work with Federal, State and local agencies and provide off campus explosive detection through mutual aid requests. The K-9 Unit answers other calls for service when not conducting training or K-9 operations. While the K-9 Units are on patrol, many community members ask questions about the dogs which provides an excellent opportunity to engage the community in discussion.
