Founded in 1865, The University of Kentucky (UK) is a public university located in the heart of the bluegrass — Lexington, Ky. The university is the largest in the state, with more than 30,000 students and more than a 13,000-person workforce. In addition to academic and residential complexes, the campus also consists of three medical centers, including a Level I trauma center.
When the University of Kentucky Police Department (UKPD) first began exploring options to centralize access control on campus, it discovered 72 different security systems in use.
