What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University of Massachusetts-Boston?
UMass Boston has campus police and public-safety services, emergency communication procedures, and ways to request help at any hour. Reported resources include 24-hour security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and a late-night transport or escort service.
Students should learn how the university sends emergency alerts and where to report a crime or immediate concern. The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and safety policies; any figures in it cover specified locations and reporting years, not every incident a student might encounter. Sexual misconduct reporting and support follow separate university procedures, so students seeking confidential help should distinguish confidential support resources from formal reporting channels.
