Associate in Applied Science in Emergency Medical and Health Services

The Associate in Applied Science in Emergency Medical and Health Services builds on the Paramedic certificate to provide students with a comprehensive academic and professional foundation in emergency medical care and health systems. This degree equips graduates with the skills and knowledge needed to meet state certification requirements and to take the National Registry EMT-Paramedic examination.  In addition, it offers a clear pathway for continued education through seamless transfer to baccalaureate programs, such as TCC’s Bachelor of Applied Science in Community Health.

Admission to the Paramedic program is not guaranteed upon general TCC admission. Students must complete a secondary selective admission process. Students are strongly encouraged to consult with an academic advisor and review the program’s webpage for detailed information on application deadlines, selection criteria, and required documentation.
