SERT examines crime on campus from its infancy (analysis, intelligence, and investigation), develops a plan of action (response) to address and neutralize the threat, and then finishes by creating a customized prevention plan to deter further victimization.</p> <p>An additional benefit of this unit is the ability for patrol officers to increase their knowledge, skills, and aptitude base through working in a specialized unit, thereby producing a well rounded candidate for future supervisory or criminal investigator roles in the agency.</p> <h4>Responsibilities</h4> <p><u>Crime analysis:</u> Predicting criminal activity is the goal of crime analysis. Without question, patrol officers and detectives alike benefit when they have constant access to crime analysis which allows them to develop an operational plan. All SERT officers are trained to maximize their ability to identify and forecast crime trends.</p> <p><u>Criminal Investigations:</u> The SERT officer, much like a patrol officer, has the ability to take cases and develop investigative leads that lead to arrests. Unlike their patrol officer counterparts, the SERT officers more flexible schedule allows for more in-depth and complex investigations. SERT officers are provided with additional training in criminal investigations, beyond that of street-level officers, so that they have an enhanced ability to manage crime scenes and conduct criminal investigations.</p> <p><u>Community Liaison:</u> Having a good understanding of the leaders and public faces in the community is a key to both forecasting potential problems (intelligence) and having the right persons in position to address these issues. SERT will compile a semester list of such persons (such as SGA, BSU, and Grad Student officers) and arrange to have periodic meetings with these individuals to foster dialogue.</p> <p><u>Special Operations:</u> Based on crime analysis, investigation, and intelligence, SERT is the primary resource in planning and executing operations to reduce and deter crime. Examples of special operations would be surveillances of parking lots to address auto theft, plain clothes details to capture armed robbers in the act, and stings to attract bicycle thieves. Special operations could include detectives and patrol officers to supplement staffing needs or bring other areas of expertise to the task.</p> <p><u>Crime Prevention:</u> Crime prevention is the natural successor to any crime analysis activities of the SERT team. Once areas and/or potential victims are identified the members of the SERT team are responsible for education and target hardening.</p> </div> </article> </div> <div id="about-spa" class="popup"> <article> <a href="#chart" title="Close" onClick="closePopup('#about-spa')" class="close"></a> <h3>Student Police Auxiliary</h3> <p>The Police Auxiliary of the University of Maryland Department of Public Safety employs Student Police Aides (SPA's) who are responsible for the delivery of security related services to the University of Maryland campus community. Since 1973, the Police Auxiliary has provided SPA's to members of the community for activities such as socials, major athletic events, and security contracts. The Police Auxiliary contributes toward the overall effectiveness of the University of Maryland Police by utilizing Student Police Aides in place of police officers where practical.</p> <p>This program also allows students to gain valuable work experience, while working to keep their own community safe.
