Welcome to Campus Safety Services
Campus Safety Services is a unit within the Department of Risk Management which is part of the People, Finance and Operations Division at Carleton University. Campus Safety consists of Patrol Services, Parking Services, Technical Services and the Carleton University Student Emergency Response Team (CUSERT) to address the needs of the community for personal safety, protection of property and parking needs.
The Campus Safety Services team is caring, collaborative and professional. We serve the Carleton University community through community engagement, prevention, risk intervention and 24/7 incident response. We work with our partners to create a welcoming and safe environment for all.
Campus Safety Services values equity, diversity and inclusion. We are committed to building greater trust and strengthening relationships to create a campus community in which everyone has a sense of physical and psychological safety, and a sense of belonging.
