Courses might include fire prevention, international fire codes, fire prevention systems and extinguishers, and fire service rescue practices. Because of the nature of the subject, online associate's degrees in fire science include a hands-on component. You might train on-site in a burn building, smoke tower, or fire pit. Fire science degrees can help you prepare for entry-level positions in firefighting with specializations in fire investigation, hazardous material, or pump operations. You might also earn your associate's degree to advance toward a management position in the fire service. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, "Employment of fire fighters is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2014." Fire fighters often receive benefits packages including medical and liability insurance, sick leave, vacation time, and paid holidays.
