Course summary

The BSc Paramedic Science will help you develop confidence, compassion and the skills required to deliver high-quality care for a challenging career in frontline emergency care as a paramedic. On successfully completing this degree you’ll be eligible to apply for registration as a paramedic with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Please note that due to the special contractual arrangements between the University and NHS Education for Scotland (NES), we are only permitted to recruit Scottish applicants on the BSc Paramedic Science. You’ll put the academic theory learned in the classroom into practice in our Lanarkshire Campus’s state-of-the-art clinical simulation environments including our immersive suite and dedicated paramedic clinical skills laboratory. Practice-based opportunities will be based within the Scottish Ambulance Service and in a range of associated health and social care settings across Ayrshire and Arran, Dumfries and Galloway and Lanarkshire. Opportunities to work within a team of healthcare professionals will help you develop an integrated approach to health and social care approaches required for contemporary paramedic practice.
