Police and Public Safety Institute
The programs in the Police and Public Safety Institute stand firmly on the same foundation – public service. It’s a quality that we nurture in our students, knowing that guiding principles will help empower your career from the first day on the job – whether you provide community and justice services, support victims of crime, or offer health care to animals. Firefighter. Police officer. Paramedic. Victimology – all responsible positions and fields that attract special, dedicated people. It’s that same drive for excellence that can be found in our instructors and facilities.
