Special Events

Florida International University’s Police Department schedules sworn and non-sworn police personnel to work special events on both University Park Campus and Biscayne Bay Campus, the Wolfsonian Museum, the Center for Engineering & Applied Sciences Building, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Among the events that are staffed are concerts, demonstrations, parties, social events, sporting events, and graduation ceremonies. The Police Department also works in conjunction with Parking & Traffic to assist with traffic direction and parking needs.

Those departments or organizations on campus that would like to host an event should contact the FIU Police Department at least two weeks prior to the event. If the event is to be held on campus, the proper reservation forms should be filled out prior to requesting the officers. Costs for these services will be charged to the requesting department unless otherwise agreed. Cancellations must be made 24 hours prior to the scheduled event. If not, a total cost for 2 hours per assigned officer will be charged to the appropriate parties.

For more information, or to request event staffing, please contact Captain Scott at (305)348-2623.
