Secure Environments

University Buildings and Programs

 Except for resident living areas, most Pitt facilities are open to the public during the day and evening hours when classes are in session. During the times that the University of Pittsburgh is officially closed, Pitt’s buildings are locked, and only faculty, staff, and—for some buildings— students with a Pitt ID are admitted. Athletic facilities require an appropriate ID at all times for admittance.

Some Pitt-sponsored programs are open to the general public, while others are restricted to students with a valid Pitt ID. Additional security personnel staff major events such as athletic events.
