Welcome to the inaugural Safety Conference at UC Merced where we look forward to hosting an annual safety conference to bring together our community and partners in a joint effort to improve campus safety and foster a culture of preparedness.

The goal of the Safety Conference is to improve our partners knowledge, competency level, and collaborative skills to improve campus safety. The Safety Conference accomplishes this by attracting subject matter experts in their field to address current topics and practical solutions.
