Masters Degree in Emergencies and Catastrophes

1 Year On Campus Masters Program

Autonomous University of Barcelona

Program Overview

There is growing demand for professionals with experience in catastrophes and non-hospital emergencies, and therefore a need for training in this area. For many years it was normal practice for accident victims to be taken to hospital accident and emergency units in poorly-equipped ambulances manned by non-professionals. However, recent research conducted on both hospital and non-hospital emergencies has shown that high-quality care given during the first hour after an accident is fundamental to preventing or mitigating its effects. This has led to the creation of a series of new hospital and non-hospital emergency services.
