The Demonstration and Activity Resource Team (DART) is dedicated to helping maintain a safe, productive and welcoming environment for all students, faculty, staff and visitors. They are available to consult with individuals and organizations before any planned activities to explain University policies, and they are onsite at most free speech events to provide assistance and ensure compliance with policies and state statutes.

The Environmental Health and Safety Office (EHS) promotes environmental, health and safety compliance within the UNC Charlotte campus community. The University is committed to the protection of the environment, and safety on the job is everyone’s responsibility. The EHS office provides guidance at all levels of the University to ensure compliance, maintain a safe workplace and to protect the environment.

The Office of Emergency Management is responsible for the planning and coordination of the Institution’s operational emergency preparedness, response and recovery efforts.

UNC Charlotte Police & Public Safety (PPS) is a fully-authorized state police agency, providing both police and security services to a campus of over 30,000 students, faculty and staff. The Department is comprised of two divisions — Patrol and Support Services — with a special emphasis on community-oriented policing. The UNC Charlotte Police Department collaborates regularly with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Force and other regional law enforcement agencies.

Public Safety Technology is dedicated to enhancing campus and community safety through the strategic use of technology. The department manages and supports critical systems — including security cameras, access control, emergency (Blue Light) phones and the LiveSafe safety app — and conducts security site surveys.

The Office of Threat Assessment and Management promotes a safe and secure campus environment for all members of the University community by providing effective threat assessment processes, coordination of case management and education to the University community. The purpose of Threat Assessment and Management is to identify, investigate, assess and manage individual(s) of concern within the UNC Charlotte community who are demonstrating concerning behaviors or warning signs that indicate they may pose a threat to and/or commit an act of violent behavior against a member(s) of the University community. The goal is to reduce risk factors for committing violent behaviors and to enable the person to remain positively engaged in the academic or work environment.
