Bachelor of Science in Gerontology with Concentration in Healthy Aging

Program Overview

Gerontology is the study of the physical, psychological, and social aspects of aging. It also includes the built environment such as homes, buildings, streets, open spaces, and infrastructure. The field of aging is multidisciplinary. Because of this, the gerontology degree allows students to have flexibility with coursework and is tailored to each student’s needs and goals. Students will choose a concentration within the major including pre-health, administration, or healthy aging. Students will complete a practicum in the community, providing students with invaluable real-world experience to prepare them to work with aging adults and their families.  A degree in Gerontology can also easily be integrated with majors and minors in other disciplines to expand into many various career opportunities.
