Security services

Making sure you always feel safe is our top priority. That’s why we have a number of initiatives in place to ensure your safety and security at all 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:

Patrols

Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, our security officers patrol campuses on foot, bicycles and in cars to make sure your environment is safe and secure.

Safety escorts

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.

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.
