The University Police receive specialized training in and actively promote the concept of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED).  CPTED strategies enhance facility security through design and use of space; and they are generally considered more appropriate to an academic setting since they tend to heighten awareness, expose criminal behavior and engender a higher level of personal comfort for the building occupants.  CPTED concepts have been incorporated into the University's design manual and are a regular part of consideration during security surveys and discussions with architects.
