Discover – What can I do with my degree?

You could begin by researching roles directly related to your paramedicine degree such as ambulance trust paramedic, prison services paramedic or primary care paramedic. However, you can also explore careers that don’t directly relate to your degree. Did you know that over 80% of graduate employers will recruit from any degree discipline?

Develop – Developing skills and experience

If you already have a clear career idea, the next step will be to develop your skills and experience to build your confidence and increase your knowledge. You probably already have some relevant experience but you might want to consider part-time work or volunteering to increase your chances of gaining graduate employment after completing your degree. It’s also a great way to try-out settings to see what you enjoy and if it’s a good fit for you.
