About the Program

This Bachelor's program for Emergency Medical Technicians (Notfallsanitäter) builds upon professional training to provide necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Emergency medical technicians perform initial medical care and assist in emergency and acute care of patients, with limited medical services being transferred to them. The program expands on skills acquired during vocational training by adding health science, business administration, pedagogical, psychological, and medical content. This enables interdisciplinary, scientifically reflected exchange with all parties involved in emergency situations and efficient patient care. The program has a modular structure covering both fundamentals (basic sciences, methodological competence) and specialized content (reference sciences, field-specific topics). Students gain insight into the structure and function of healthcare and emergency services systems, including how hospitals, clinics, emergency service providers, and cost carriers are organized.
