    BSc Programs in Emergency Medicine

    A Bachelor of Science is one track that a student may choose for their undergraduate studies. Typically, this degree is for majors that are more technical, such as computer science, biology or engineering. A bachelor’s program usually takes four years to complete but may also be completed in three when done online.

    What is a BSc in EMS and Paramedics? This degree program prepares students to care for patients in emergency situations until the patient has reached the doctor. Emergency medical care providers rescue people from car accidents using the jaws of life and also handle disaster situations. Students learn necessary skills through classroom instruction as well as hands-on activities and work with experienced professionals in varied areas of the healthcare industry. They may choose to specialize in areas such as fire safety or emergency services administration.

    With a bachelor’s degree in a hands-on field, students can usually launch directly into the workforce. Degree holders will generally have increased job opportunities and earn more than those without degrees. They are also well-equipped to seek a master’s degree if they wish to pursue higher administrative positions.

    The cost of getting a Bachelor in EMS and Paramedics varies depending on the school. Online classes typically cost less than attending full time. However, students may find that some hands-on classes may need to be taken on campus.

    After graduating, students can expect to find jobs in a number of healthcare settings. Typical jobs include positions as EMTs, paramedics and flight paramedics, as well as administrators or supervisors for emergency services. Students may also become physicians’ assistants or work as emergency services personnel for fire departments.
