Our role is to protect people and property on University properties. UOW Security operates in Wollongong 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout the year and responds to the Wollongong Campus, Innovation Campus and Student Accommodation and business activity across Wollongong. UOW engages security contractors for the regional and metropolitan campuses. UOW Security also provides support and assistance to these campuses as needed.

The Safe and Respectful Communities (SARC) team are committed to creating a safe and respectful environment across all campuses. SARC are responsible for supporting students who have witnessed or experienced sexual assault, harassment, domestic and family violence, bullying or discrimination. SARC are also leading the university's prevention work in this space. 

SafeZone is UOW free Security's mobile app and is the quickest way to contact Security. All UOW Campus locations are covered by the app. The SafeZone app enhances personal safety at UOW by making it easier to contact UOW Security if help is needed. The SafeZone app is a great resource if you ever need emergency assistance for yourself or someone else. UOW Security monitors SafeZone 24 hours a day.
