About UNH CPS’s B.S. Fire Service Administration Program:
The online B.S. in Fire Service Administration degree is a bachelor’s completion program that prepares fire service professionals with the leadership, management, and administrative knowledge and skills essential to advance in the fire service field. The program integrates the knowledge and skills necessary to mitigate fire and emergency services' ethical, moral, social, and situational challenges.
“Being professional, thorough, knowledgeable, inquisitive, moral, and ethical are character traits that are most critical to being a firefighter. The degree program helped me develop those skills by exposing me to important literature, laws, moral and ethical issues, and leadership skills I had never thought about or knew existed.”
