Paramedic Science (September entry) - Stafford Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)

Gain the vital skills to become a paramedic and help save lives every day.

You’ll spend up to a third of your time on placements and dealing with real-life emergencies. It will involve doing shifts alongside experienced paramedics from West Midlands Ambulance Service.

Some students also complete elective placements as far afield as South Africa and Gibraltar, or work with search and rescue, air ambulance and hazardous response teams.

You’ll learn how to diagnose and assess patients, administer medication, manage airways, give life support, deal with injuries and more complex cases.

On campus, you’ll follow a patient’s journey using our simulation facilities. You could be treating manikin patients at home, inside our training ambulance or in our giant immersive space that doubles up as a variety of emergency scenes. We’ve even got a simulated A&E.

As the degree is validated by the Health and Care Professions Council, you’ll be able to apply to become a registered paramedic upon graduation.

On successful completion of study, we will issue the following award: BSc (Hons) Paramedic Science
