ISU offers two pathways:

• The Associate of Science in Paramedic Science
• The Paramedic Science Academic Certificate

Both the certificate and the degree require the same prerequisites and complete the same Paramedic Science curriculum. Students who complete the Paramedic Science four-semester curriculum and ISU’s general education requirements will receive the associate of science degree. Students who complete the Paramedic Science four-semester curriculum only will receive the academic certificate, but may continue to complete the associate degree at any time. 

Why choose ISU?

• Eligible for federal financial aid
• Idaho's only accredited Associate of Science in Paramedic Science degree program
• Option to continue on for a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences with a concentration in Emergency Medical Services
