Hear From Graduates

"My time in the Gerontology program has gone above and beyond what I ever could have expected. I have learned so much in topics related to the aging population. The confidence and skill I have gained is invaluable and has changed my life and my career for the better. I look forward to using what I have learned to care for my future patients, and to continue to educate myself on topics relating to older adults with the skills and foundation I have gained in my classwork."
