Bachelor of Paramedic Science - Graduate Entry

The Bachelor of Paramedic Science (Graduate Entry) offers a pathway for applicants with a bachelor degree. Students are awarded the equivalent of one year of advanced standing (credit) and complete the course in two years of full-time study. The course was Queensland’s first degree in paramedic science and our established partnerships ensure you will complete extensive placements with the Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS). Your first placement begins at the end of your first year of study. Our staff are experienced paramedics and allied health professionals and will give you first-hand knowledge of the profession through case studies and personal experiences. On campus, you will learn in facilities that feature life-sized ambulance simulators, human patient simulators, and multi-casualty sites that imitate a building collapse, car accident or explosion. You will develop an appreciation of anatomical variability, pathology and effective medical communication with the opportunity to work with human donor material. This course is only available for Australian and New Zealand students.
