OUR LEADERSHIP

CHIEF LINDA J. STUMP-KURNICK

Thank you for taking the time to visit the University of Florida Police Department (UFPD) website. I am extremely proud to be a part of such a progressive campus law enforcement agency and would like to tell you a little more about our department. The University of Florida Police Department is a State and Nationally Accredited law enforcement agency established to provide the highest degree of safety and security possible for the University of Florida community.

We currently employ 88 certified law enforcement officers that provide twenty-four hour-per day patrol and protection of campus and local assets, enforcing all laws and ordinances. We are committed to the prevention of crime and the protection of life and property.

Like many municipal, county, and state law enforcement agencies, we have a Criminal Investigations Division dedicated to investigating crimes occurring on our campus, a Bicycle Patrol Unit, Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT), 4 K-9 Teams (Officer Morgan and Apollo, Officer Jost & Libby, Officer Williams & Ruff, and Officer Mayall & Ronnie), Motor Cycle Unit, the Office of Victim Services, and other specialized units responsible for duties unique to the campus environment.

Every member of the UF community should also be familiar with and take advantage of, the UFPD Community Services Division. The Community Services Division (CSD) is one of the most important divisions of our department. CSD Officers are committed to providing personal and property safety information and programs designed to help make your educational, living, and working experience at UF as enjoyable and crime-free as possible. You can contact the Community Services Division at (352) 392-1409.
