The Caruth Police Institute is located on the first floor of Dallas Police Department’s Jack Evans Police Headquarters, 1400 Botham Jean Blvd. Dallas TX 75215. Our classes are held at the University of North Texas at Dallas campus as well as various locations throughout DFW. If you are interested in hosting a class at your agency, please e-mail cpi@untdallas.edu.
We have a number of course offerings for different ranks. Please see our "Schedule" page for more details.
Caruth Police Institute has a growing library with updated literature on policing, leadership, and management skills and strategies. The articles and books are available for our class participants, as well as any Dallas Police Department personnel.
Some courses are mandatory for newly promoted sergeants, lieutenants and majors at the Dallas Police Department; for DPD employees tenured in their rank, enrollment in courses may be secured by nomination by a supervisor. Officers and civilian employees from other area law enforcement agencies are welcome in many of our courses for a competitive fee; please contact the Caruth Police Institute for more details.
Because we are located in DPD headquarters, Dallas Police Department officers are welcome to drop in and learn more about our institute or meet our staff at any time. For those outside of DPD, please call in advance or make an appointment at 214-671-3732.
