Careers at UWPD

The UW–Madison Police Department provides a wide range of law enforcement and related services to the campus community—all carried out according to our values and community-oriented approaches to policing. We are proud to be a part of the UW–Madison community, a “city within a city”—and strive to hire the best and most qualified individuals to assume the great responsibility of serving and protecting our campus and nearby areas.

All of our police officers are deputized by the Dane County Sheriff’s Office and are authorized to enforce all State of Wisconsin law and Rules of the UW Board of Regents.
