What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Michigan Technological University?

Michigan Tech provides campus public safety services, emergency response resources, and procedures for reporting incidents. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency phones or alarms, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and late-night escort or transportation assistance.

Students should learn how to receive university emergency notifications and where to report an immediate threat, a nonemergency concern, or sexual misconduct. The appropriate reporting route and confidential support options may differ, so those distinctions are worth checking before they are needed. Michigan Tech publishes an annual security report containing federally required campus-crime disclosures and safety policies. Its statistics cover specified locations and reporting years; they are not a complete measure of every student's personal safety.
