One of the busiest departments on the Ole Miss Campus is the University Police Department (UPD). The UPD is dedicated to working with the University of Mississippi to ensure a safe environment on and off campus. One of their biggest concerns is the safety and security of all students, faculty, staff and visitors at Ole Miss.

The UPD officers are regularly seen on campus patrolling and they work 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, located in the heart of campus. There are five divisions which compose the University Police Department;– patrol, investigation, crime prevention, security staff and support. Their work is of great interest at the University.
