Because of their size and complexity, universities throughout the country have found it necessary to develop their own law enforcement and security departments. The Department of Public Safety is the unit or organization with primary responsibility for maintaining a safe and secure environment at MTU.
Our goal is to facilitate the academic mission by providing an environment in which all members of the campus community can safely study, work and live.
The Department of Public Safety is staffed by trained, certified State of Michigan Police Officers who have full law enforcement authority (including the power of arrest) throughout Houghton County. The Department is staffed and operates 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
The picture above shows the entrance to Public Safety. We are located in the Widmaier House. From the only stop light on campus turn onto MacInnes Drive and we are the first building on the right.
