Police Department

We Make Lives Better

Welcome to the police department of  UT Health San Antonio. We have over 110 employees that are ready to assist our students, faculty, staff, and visitors 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our police department takes pride in providing exceptional policing services to our university community and to the entire South Texas Medical Center.

We support the mission of the university by maintaining a safe and crime-free environment through innovative, proactive, and professional law enforcement initiatives.

Our police department is nationally accredited by the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators and all of our police officers are certified peace officers by the State of Texas. We take pride in serving our university communities in San Antonio and Laredo, Texas.  Our officers respond to emergency and non-emergency calls for service, enforce Texas State laws, UT policies, conduct criminal investigations, and professionally carry out other law enforcement related activities.

I encourage you to share your ideas and suggestions with me on how we can best serve our community by contacting me directly by phone at 210-450-8727 or via email at parksm@uthscsa.edu.
