The Health Sciences curriculum and EMT Program provides student with the technical and practical training and critical thinking skills necessary to meet the rigorous standards of the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) and reciprocal State Certification and Licensing Requirements.

Students who successfully earn the NREMT and State EMT Certifications, will meet minimal occupational requirements to start a career in Emergency Medical Services and other Allied Health care professions. The EMT program is instrumental in launching the careers of students as professional firefighters, EMTs and paramedics with pre-hospital care providers, emergency room technicians, burn unit technicians, as well as a variety of other full and part-time opportunities within the industry.

EMT certification has also become a valuable stepping stone in the path of students pursuing careers as physicians, registered nurses, physician assistants, and other allied health professions, by offering a distinct advantage in patient assessment and critical interventions skills, as well as the ability to obtain valuable work experience.
