UNC Pembroke Police and Public Safety

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

UNC Pembroke Police and Public Safety is the university’s law-enforcement department. Its primary responsibility is protecting people and property on the campus, with continuous service by state-certified officers. The town’s Pembroke Police Department is a separate organization, and off-campus incidents may require the local agency with jurisdiction.

How the agency is organized

The university publishes police command and supervisory roles, a traffic office, telecommunications, administrative support and Clery coordination. Services combine criminal-law enforcement with campus safety, reporting, parking and community assistance. The Brave Alert system and campus incident-reporting resources supplement direct contact with police; they should not be confused with municipal dispatch.

Official records and officer resources

The university’s police page provides incident-reporting routes, annual security and fire-safety reports, and daily or monthly crime logs. The campus crime-reporting policy distinguishes police reporting from other institutional procedures. For employment questions, use university recruitment and personnel-policy resources; campus Clery statistics and UCR offense tables use different definitions and geography.
