Aalborg University (AAU) has an overarching objective to provide a safe, secure and flexible environment for everyone on University premises.

This Security and Safety Policy establishes the fundamental principles and requirements governing physical and electronic security at AAU, including access control, intruder alarm systems, video surveillance, security culture, security clearances and other current and future security measures.

The Policy applies to all staff, students, partners, suppliers and visitors who are present in or have access to AAU’s buildings and sites.

The Policy does not cover other safety- and security-related areas, such as information security, emergency management, fire safety, research security or the physical working environment, which are governed by separate policies. However, coordination with these areas must be ensured to avoid overlaps or conflicting guidelines.
