Aging Studies Program
The Aging Studies Program at The University of Iowa is designed to provide undergraduate and graduate students with a multidisciplinary approach to gerontology. The program consists of courses that have been coordinated and sequenced to provide a broad background in aging for students from various disciplines. All students plan their course of study with their academic advisers in close cooperation with the Aging Studies Program.
The Aging Studies Program was featured in an article about certificate programs in the Spring 2007 edition of the University's publication "Parent Times."
