Hey, :wavey:

Thank you for your question.

At CCCU, the typical week in university may range from two to four contact days where you will be required to attend lectures or seminars. This will depend on the number of modules that you're covering at that time.

The Paramedic Science course is a full-time course, and therefore each week, you are expected to complete approximately 37.5 hours of learning. This includes independent study. To study at university good time management and commitment are key.

50% of your time studying on the course you will be out on placements. Owing to the varied nature of placements and specialist settings, you may need to travel to and from placements. These are mainly within Kent, Medway, East Sussex and London. However, you will never be required to travel more than 90 minutes from your term time address. Our placement team are accommodating and you can always chat to them if you have any worries.

Check out our website for more information on the course: https://www.canterbury.ac.uk/study-here/courses/paramedic-science

Alternatively, you can email [email protected] if you have any further questions or reply back to this thread and we will answer your question!

I hope this helps:thumbsup:
