GERO 750 - Gerontology Theory/Methods Seminar I

[3]

The first of a two-semester sequence integrating theory and methods in gerontology. The course provides students with the information and skills to think like a gerontologist, using both theory and methods unique to the field and understanding the language and techniques used by a wide range of gerontological researchers. Students completing this sequence will be able to approach problems from an interdisciplinary perspective, “speak the language” of gerontology across disciplinary barriers of jargon, employ the work of contributing disciplines in their own research and work as part of an interdisciplinary research team.
