Introduction
As an Emergency Medical Services (EMS) major at Franklin Pierce University you will study the field of rapid response from a social science perspective.
Explore legal, political, and regulatory frameworks in EMS settings, as well as technology-based health applications and healthy work environments. Develop critical thinking and decision-making skills to effectively manage emergency situations.
Classes are offered in both classroom and online formats, with four courses featured exclusively online. This non-clinical degree program does not lead to EMT or paramedic certification; however, you should plan to obtain an EMT certification to enhance your marketability after graduation.
You can also work on campus as a security officer, EMT, or firefighter. These experiences will position you well for connections to top-tier organizations where Franklin Pierce students have interned, including the American Red Cross, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, and more.
