Licenciatura en Servicios Médicos de Emergencia

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.

Franklin Pierce is a private, non-profit, regionally accredited University where every student has the opportunity to discover their passion and greatest potential.

Frank S. DiPietro, who founded the college in 1962 and served as Pierce’s first president, maintained the perspective that “only the small college can provide the intimate relationships between those who learn and those who teach.” More than five decades later, the University remains committed to this vision. With an environment that fosters intellectual curiosity and a sense of place, the community of educators at Pierce prepares every graduate for life on the other side of a degree through a combination of personalized teaching, and experiential and applied learning, including research, internships, and co-ops.

Through its campuses in Rindge, New Hampshire and Goodyear, Arizona, as well as centers across New Hampshire in Manchester, and Lebanon, Franklin Pierce provides flexible learning options that serve a wide range of students. Whether on-campus or online, students can follow a traditional undergraduate track to an associate or bachelor’s degree or pursue an advanced master’s or doctoral degree.
