What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Purdue University Fort Wayne?

Purdue Fort Wayne has campus public-safety resources and emergency procedures for reporting incidents and responding to urgent situations. Students should learn the university's current emergency contacts and notification process when they enroll, rather than relying on a general city emergency number for every campus issue.

The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for its federally required campus-crime disclosures and related policies. Reported incidents reflect defined locations, categories, and years; they are not a complete measure of an individual's personal safety. Students can also review the university's procedures for reporting sexual misconduct and obtaining support, including how confidential services differ from formal reports.
