The Fall 2020 EMT-B class application is now live and is due on July 31, 2020 at 5 PM CST.

IEMS teaches an EMT-Basic course during the fall and spring academic semesters. The course is open to UIUC students, staff, and faculty who are able to meet the appropriate prerequisites. Students in past classes range from those interested in future health careers in medicine, nursing, pre-hospital care, physical therapy, or physician assistant as well as those in other fields such as engineering, computer science, political science, foreign language, or business. Most EMT students are also students at the University of Illinois.  The majority of our graduates use their license to volunteer with IEMS to provide EMS coverage for campus events; additionally, some choose to seek employment through local ambulance companies or Emergency Departments.

All classes will follow guidelines set by the University of Illinois as well as the CDC. Please refer to the COVID-19 Policy Addendum for more information. See application details for more information or reach out via email.
