On a Wilderness EMT (WEMT) course at the Wyss Campus, you’ll enjoy the rugged landscape of rural Wyoming as you earn your EMT certification and learn how to respond to emergencies in the wilderness. With two indoor classrooms, easy access to outdoor practice space, cabin-style housing for students, and on-campus meals, our campus is specifically designed for the purpose of teaching wilderness medicine. In addition to spending time in class and studying, you’ll participate in simulated medical scenarios while managing real-life terrain and weather conditions. The Wyss Campus facilities combine cutting-edge, environmentally friendly design with sweeping views of the striking red rock formations of Lander’s Red Canyon. As you learn to care for patients in the outdoors, you’ll also learn how sustainable living and design work in practice. From solar power and composting toilets to geothermal heating and cooling, our campus offers an outstanding example of how to minimize human impact on the land. Join a group of motivated Wilderness EMT students on the Wyss Campus to learn how to respond to medical emergencies—at home and in the backcountry.
