Tuskegee University Police Department

The Tuskegee University Police Department (TUPD) has jurisdiction over all campus grounds, remote facilities, and University-owned housing units for off-campus students and faculty. TUPD is a fully functioning police department that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. TUPD has 4 major divisions: dispatch, patrol, investigations, and parking enforcement. The department is comprised of sworn and non-sworn personnel.

TUPD is given authority from the code of Alabama statutes section 16-47-10. TUPD’s sworn officers have the same full law enforcement powers and responsibilities under state law as municipal police officers and county sheriffs. Tuskegee University's Campus Police Officers are vested with law enforcement powers and responsibilities of a full police department. They are responsible for crime reports, investigations, emergencies, traffic accidents, and other incidents requiring police assistance.
