The University of Maryland, Baltimore Police Department (UMBPD) is committed to transparency and accountability. This page makes UMBPD policies accessible to the communities we serve.

Our policies set expectations for all UMBPD employees and provide standards for success. Here, you will find guidelines for conduct, appearance, personnel matters, and the enforcement of federal, state, and local laws.

Our policies are regularly reviewed, updated, and distributed to UMBPD employees. Revisions will be updated on this webpage, as appropriate. 

The UMBPD is a progressive, innovative, and professional police department. While it is not possible to anticipate every situation and manage the response for every scenario, we expect all our employees to exercise common sense and good judgement in accordance with UMBPD's mission and vision.
