Welcome to the Office of Fire Safety and Emergency Planning. Our role is to protect USC's people and mission by ensuring that the university is well prepared for any likely emergency and well protected from major hazards. We serve as liaisons for the university with issues involving the Los Angeles City Fire Department. We maintain the university's Emergency Operation Center, conduct building evacuation drills, and ensure that all major campus events are properly designed and executed with the safety of the university's students, faculty and staff in mind.

Services provided to the university community include Fire Safety & Fire Extinguisher Training, Building Emergency Preparedness Training (BERT), and Event Planning consultation. We enhance the university's emergency response by providing training and emergency exercises for the twelve primary service departments and groups.
