Thanks to our convenient location and affordable pricing, Shepherd is considered a second home to many residents of West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania.

Shepherd University seeks a Campus Police Investigator I to join our team.

Join a department where community policing, professional growth, and meaningful service come together on a campus with up-to-date technology and a strong commitment to safety and student success. Our officers play a vital role in creating a safe and welcoming environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors while enjoying benefits and opportunities that are often unavailable in traditional municipal policing.

Why Choose Campus Policing?

Community-Focused Environment – Build positive relationships with students, faculty, and staff in a collaborative setting that emphasizes problem-solving, mentorship, and service.
Diverse and Rewarding Responsibilities – Campus officers handle a wide range of calls, including public safety, crime prevention, special events, emergency management, and community outreach.
Professional Development Opportunities – Gain experience in specialized areas such as threat assessment, emergency preparedness, behavioral intervention, crime prevention, and higher-education public safety.
Quality of Life Benefits – Campus policing often provides a more predictable work environment, reduced call volume compared to many municipal agencies, and greater opportunities for proactive policing and community engagement.
Educational Benefits – tuition waivers, employee educational programs, and access to professional training resources.
Meaningful Impact – Help shape the success and safety of future generations by serving a community dedicated to learning, growth, and achievement.
Special Events and Campus Activities – Participate in athletic events, commencement ceremonies, concerts, and other unique experiences that are rarely part of traditional law enforcement assignments.

Competitive pay, training opportunities, and excellent benefits package for eligible employees.

Become part of a professional team committed to safety, service, integrity, and education.

Apply today and make a difference where learning and community meet.
