Course Descriptions
The Gerontology Program will prepare students to manage the health,
psychological, and social needs of the elderly population. The need for
specialization in gerontology is clearly shown in population trends and
documented in literature citing the lack of adequately prepared
geriatric caregivers. Students who are planning to continue
specialization in gerontology by transferring to a four-year college
should consult the Requirements for Transfer Institutions section of
this catalog. Consultation with an SCC counselor is advised.
