Security services
Making sure you always feel safe is our top priority. That’s why we have a number of initiatives in place to make sure you’re safe at our campuses.
There’s an emergency number you can call if you ever need to, along with emergency help points at every campus so you can reach us if you don’t have a phone. We have a general security number too, where you can get advice, make a report or ask for a security escort.
For an overview of our services, take a look at our safety and security video.
Learn how to identify a scam
Scammers succeed because they make the information look real – that’s why anyone can be a victim of a scam. For all the details on how to identify a scam and minimise your risk, check out our scams page.
Campus security offices
We’ve got security offices on all our campuses so you can get help when you need it. Drop by or call us at any time, day or night, seven days a week.

Security bus
Security buses run on our Clayton and Caulfield campuses from 5.30pm to midnight, Monday to Friday. They leave about every 30 minutes.
Our live bus tracker shows the current location of the security buses (see below). You can use our maps to find the bus routes and pick-up points (bus stops) – a mobile version of the pick-up point map is also available on the Monash bSafe app.
There are emergency help points (phones and intercoms) at every campus – just press the button or pick up the phone to talk to Security:
For your safety, our control room staff monitor security cameras, electronic access points, and intruder and emergency alarms on all our campuses.
The security cameras record images and recognise vehicle licence plate numbers, helping us prevent incidents and respond quickly.
Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, our security officers patrol campuses on foot and in cars to make sure your environment is safe and secure.
All security vehicles contain first aid kits and defibrillators that enable us to rapidly respond to a medical or cardiac emergency.
If you want a security officer to walk with you anywhere on campus, call the general security number (03 9902 7777) to arrange a safety escort.
