At The University of Hull studying the BSc Paramedic Science (Hons) you will learn how best to deliver front-line patient care through a combination of classroom theory, online learning and clinical placements with the Yorkshire Ambulance Service.

Students learn to work as part of a multidisciplinary team and continuing professional development is encouraged from the outset. This highly relevant course is part of a national drive to make paramedics better qualified by making it a degree-only profession rather than the historic route in which paramedics worked their way up through the ranks of the ambulance service. All students must ensure they have the ability to reach their placement on the relevant date/time.Ê

Future Prospects

Employment prospects are excellent as the programme has been designed to meet a critical local shortage of paramedics at the specific request of the Yorkshire Ambulance Service.

Successful graduates will be eligible to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), an essential requirement for anyone wanting to work as a paramedic in the UK.
