Triage and trauma often refer to the assessment of shock and injury in an emergency. Students can learn how to identify high-risk patients who have a traumatic brain injury, neurogenic or cardiogenic shock. Through classroom study and on-hands training, students may learn how to evaluate and treat acute issues.

A Master of Science is a graduate degree that can be obtained by students who have first completed a bachelor’s program in a similar field. An MSc typically takes about two years of full-time study to earn.
