| Description | Gerontology is the study of the changes that take place in the process of aging, how society defines aging, and how individuals understand their own later years.
At one time, talks of aging prompted images of failing health, isolation, and lack of purpose. Today, people are living longer, healthier, and more productive lives. Studying Gerontology at St. Thomas, you will explore the impact of the way society defines aging and how individuals actually experience and understand their own later years. | | |
