Internship Spotlight: Luis Angomas, Passaic Police Department Records Bureau

In the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, students are encouraged to discover their passions through their studies and to pursue those interests beyond the classroom. This summer, our students obtained internships across various fields and we’re proud to spotlight their experiences!

Luis Angomas, a Psychology major, has been interning at the Passaic Police Department Records Bureau as an office assistant. Angomas, who aspires to become a police officer post graduation, has “a strong passion for law enforcement” and asked for a position himself by calling the department.

“I was very excited about the position because I would be able to build connections with the other officers,” Angomas says. “I was excited about getting hands-on experience.”

The busy nature of a police department has quickly taught Angomas a lot about what a future as an officer will entail. He works specifically on marijuana expungement cases, using the department’s database to retrieve and navigate information that will aid in a court in making an individual’s arrest or conviction record unavailable to the public.
