Security for On-Campus Events

The UC San Diego Police Department partners with event organizers to deliver customized security services, safety guidance and support to meet your specific event needs. Three types of event staffing are available:

• Community Service Officials observe attendees and ask for voluntary compliance with low-level policy violations.
• Triton Safety Officials staff events that involve a higher level of attendee interaction and enforcement of rules, use of a magnetometer or bag screening.
• Police officers provide a higher level of armed security and law enforcement services to supplement Triton Safety Official and/or Community Service Official staffing for large or high-profile events.

Safety and security are a shared responsibility. Early planning and clear communication help to ensure the appropriate level of support for your event while controlling costs. Please submit requests at least three weeks before the scheduled event to ensure that we can accommodate as many requests as possible. We will do our best within that time frame, but we cannot guarantee availability.

Request Event Security

All security requests must be submitted through the Triton Reservation and Event System (T-RES). Depending on the size, scope and nature of your event, additional information or approvals may be required.
