The Wayne State University Police Department (WSUPD) marked its 50th anniversary as a recognized law enforcement agency with a recent celebration. WSUPD, comprised of 60 police officers, was formed in 1966 and has been providing a full range of professional police services. In 2009, the university expanded the police department's coverage area to include all crime calls in a four-square-mile area including the main campus, medical school campus and the entire Midtown Detroit area.
