The University Center on Aging and Health at Case Western Reserve University is dedicated to the premise that aging is a developmental process spanning the entire life cycle, and brings together social and behavioral sciences, health sciences, and the humanities to encourage teaching and research activities in every unit of the University. The University Center sponsors a certificate program in gerontology for graduate and professional students and for those who already hold graduate degrees.
GRADUATE CERTIFICATE PROGRAM
A student interested in a graduate certificate in gerontology must be enrolled in a master's or doctoral program or be a special non-degree student with at least a master's degree (or equivalent) and must formally submit a notice of intent to the University Center on Aging and Health. To receive a certificate in gerontology, a student must complete program requirements of 12 credit hours, submit a formal application for the certificate, and be approved by the University Center on Aging and Health. No transfer credit is permitted.
The student must complete the following:
1. An approved three-credit course or independent study in the student's discipline.
2. Two three-credit courses in gerontology outside the student's discipline (approved by the University Center on Aging and Health).
3. A three-credit seminar in gerontology offered by the Center.
No more than one independent study course will be permitted for the program. For further information, contact the University Center on Aging and Health at the address listed above.
