Annual Security and Fire Safety Report 2022 Heading link
The 2021-2022 Annual Security and Fire Safety Report (ASFSR) highlights the many safety and security procedures, programs, and services available at UIC and our regional health and sciences campuses. The report offers so much more than crime statistics- it’s a tool for you to discover how you can contribute to campus safety, the programs and resources at your disposal, and it offers a peek at the many working elements that come together to make UIC a safer and more resilient university.
Discover how we all play a role in this effort through exploring the 2021-2022 ASFSR!

Are you #UICReady? Surviving an Active Threat Event Heading link
The Aware and Prepared campaign is committed to putting U first and designed to educate and empower our community to prepare for, respond to, and mitigate emergencies.
This page offers a selection of active threat preparedness and responses products, tools, and resources, including our new training video to instruct our students and employees on the “Evacuate, Evade or Engage” protocol.
Finding yourself in such a situation can cause extreme panic and disorientation. But if you know what to do ahead of time, your chances of surviving this type of emergency situation are greatly increased.
A prepared UIC is a resilient UIC!

Emergency Management as a Career
As part of our campaign for National Preparedness Month 2021, we engaged subject-matter experts in the field of emergency management to have them weigh in on a few key areas. Our goal is to support increased visibility of EM as a profession (#MakeEMMoreVisible), not only for those who may be studying it at UIC, but also for those who may be considering entering the field.
