Studying Gerontology gives you the opportunity to make someone’s life better!
Because of the rapid growth of the aging community, a certificate in Gerontology is a great add-on for any major. Even if you are undecided about working with the population of older adults, you will find relating to older friends and family more natural and rewarding as a result of your studies in the Gerontology department. The ACU Pruett Gerontology Certificate encompasses 15 hours which includes 9 hours of required classes and 6 hours of electives. There is a practicum tailored to the GERO student’s interests and future career goals. A minor in Aging Studies is also on the horizon!
