The study of aging is approached from a cross-disciplinary and multi-dimensional perspective. The program offers core courses in gerontology and includes classes from Social Work, Biology, Recreation Administration, Psychology, and Women's Studies. The Interdisciplinary Gerontology Program offers a Minor in Gerontology and The Gerontological Specialist Certificate. A special major in gerontology may also be designed. Please see Dr. Miltiades if you are interested in designing a special major in gerontology.
