What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University of Houston-Downtown?

UHD has a university police and public-safety function for reporting incidents and responding to emergencies on campus. Students should learn the current emergency contact procedure, sign up for UHD's emergency notifications and review the university's instructions for reporting a safety concern.

The university publishes an annual security report under federal campus-safety rules. That report is the appropriate place to check the reporting years, geographic categories and definitions behind disclosed crime statistics; the figures should not be read as a complete measure of personal risk. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should review UHD's Title IX reporting and support procedures, which are distinct from making a police report. Available services and after-hours procedures should be checked directly with the responsible campus offices.
