Master of Family Studies and Gerontology (Non-thesis)

The graduate programs in Family Studies and Gerontology will help students develop a deep understanding of the key issues that affect this field: family dynamics and development, or individual and population aging. Students can focus their studies on Family Studies or on Gerontology. Family Studies considers individuals and families across the life-course, as well as the programs and policies that affect families. Gerontology focuses on issues related to aging and the challenges that older persons encounter.
