Return to: Programs, Minors and Certificates
The residential graduate certificate in gerontology program provides an opportunity for those who have completed a bachelor’s degree in another profession or discipline and are employed in the field of aging to acquire a greater understanding of gerontology theory and research. The program consists of 16 units of gerontology content designed to familiarize the student with several areas of the field which relate to professional practice.
In addition to three of the four required core course areas for the certificate program (GERO 510 , GERO 520 or GERO 522 , GERO 530 or GERO 585 , GERO 540 ), each student will have the option to choose one elective course that meets his or her particular area of interest.
Certificate students do not take a field practicum. Students admitted to the non-degree certificate program are expected to enroll each semester until the program is completed.
