While Berkeley is in an urban environment, the campus offers a wide range of [safety services](https://nightsafety.berkeley.edu/home) such as late-night shuttles, campus escorts, and self-defense courses. The Berkeley campus has a dedicated, [full-service police department](https://ucpd.berkeley.edu/) with 77 officers, 45 full-time non-sworn personnel, and 60 student employees.
