Welcome

The Paramedic Education Program is a partnership program between Oregon Health & Science University and Oregon Institute of Technology. Students invest 12-months studying the art and science of being a paramedic while in our program. After graduating, students are eligible for state and national certification exams.

This rigorous educational offering supports our mission of educating future leaders in the field of out-of-hospital medical care. Our reputation began in 1977, and continues today, built upon years of educating dynamic, thinking, paramedics.
