What will I learn?

Our Paramedic Science BSc (Hons) degree is an innovative course where you will learn the underpinning paramedic knowledge, skills, values and behaviours fundamental to professional paramedic practice. Crucially, it gives graduates eligibility to apply for registration as a paramedic with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and enter the workforce as a registered Allied Health Professional.

UK paramedics have diverse roles, including responding to emergency calls, providing pre-hospital care and performing medical procedures such as administering medications, intubation and defibrillation. And not all qualified paramedics wear green. They work in many other areas of healthcare, including primary care in general practice and out in the community, as well as in education.

With training in our cutting-edge simulation facilities, the course will enable you to deliver safe and proficient paramedic care across diverse settings. Through immersive and simulation-driven learning, you will actively engage in your educational journey, while the course's pedagogical approach facilitates the practical application of theoretical concepts to solidify your comprehension of paramedic science.

In addition to medical expertise, you will gain advanced abilities in communication, teamwork, clinical decision making and the factors that impact healthcare, while our curriculum explores paramedic care methodologies from around the world. The course is also seeking accreditation by the College of Paramedics.
