𝐅𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄: 𝐀𝐔𝐅 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞

Carlo C. Mariano, a graduate of AUF’s Bachelor of Science in Criminology, Batch 2012, now serves as a police constable with the Saint John Police Force in New Brunswick, Canada. His path from local law enforcement to an international post reflects the depth of his training and the lasting impact of his education at the Angeles University Foundation College of Criminal Justice Education (AUF-CCJE).

Mariano shared that his time at AUF was a defining period that shaped his discipline, character, and confidence. “The college helped me develop my character, honed my sense of responsibility, and provided me the self-assurance to serve with honesty and integrity,” he said. It also laid the groundwork for his understanding of criminal justice in theory and practice.

Before working abroad, Mariano gained law enforcement experience in the Philippines. He credits AUF’s practical training, rigorous coursework, and the guidance of mentors for preparing him for both local and international work. “I always bring the discipline, morals, and resiliency that AUF CCJE taught me,” he said. “Whether I’m interacting with local communities or adjusting to a new law enforcement system, I carry those values with me.”

Now working in Canada, Mariano continues to embody the values he learned at AUF—values he believes future criminology students should hold on to. “Never lose sight of why you chose this path. Let the passion for justice guide you, and let the values you gain here shape every decision,” he said. “The world needs more courageous, compassionate, and principled officers—and I believe that’s exactly what AUF CCJE produces.”
