Prerequisites: Baccalaureate degree in health or human services or equivalent.

Social gerontology integrates knowledge that ranges from history, demography, physiology, philosophy, science, ethics, medicine, law, mass communication and social policy, among others. The course will emphasize the research literature to consider issues that include work, retirement, leisure, health, technologies and living environments.
