Michigan Tech’s emphasis on creating and sustaining a safe environment for students
first drew national attention from a Reader’s Digest ranking as the safest campus
in Michigan and third in the US. Ongoing cohesive planning and a culture of respect,
empowerment, and education continue to foster our strong awareness, prevention, and
response network.
The 2022 Safest College Campuses poll ranks us the seventh safest college in Michigan based on a safe and healthy
environment with little or no campus crime, drugs or alcohol use.
Our inclusive Safety First Alert system provides rapid notifications via phone, text, or email in event of time-sensitive
news or emergencies.
