At UEA we offer a contemporary and holistic approach to paramedic education, so you’ll be joining a course that’s both challenging and exciting, and prepares you to take your first flying steps in this fast-paced profession. Our three-year BSc in Paramedic Science is the very first in the UK to enable students to qualify with a nationally recognised qualification in Advanced Life Support (as accredited by the Resuscitation Council UK). Designed and delivered in line with the College of Paramedics curriculum guidance framework, it will provide you with a highly contemporary and complete paramedic education.
You’ll study core themes such as communication, psychological and sociological factors affecting health, evidence-based practice and leadership, as well as anatomy, physiology and pharmacology. You’ll explore real human anatomy in our anatomy suite. You’ll work side-by-side with other students and healthcare professionals, giving you a 360° insight into everyone’s roles. Throughout the course you’ll take on placements in ambulances on hospital wards, specialist units and in general practice, so you can put the theory into real practice. And you’ll be able to shape the course to fit your own skillset with an elective placement in your final year. |
