More than a master’s program …

our students are the future of geriatric patient care. At UF Aging Online, our mission is to create a workforce that will better care for the older adult population.

Online Graduate Programs in Gerontology

The number of Americans ages 65 and older is projected to reach 77 million by the year 2034, and within two decades, seniors will outnumber children for the first time in U.S. history. There is a growing call for gerontologists and geriatricians that is going unanswered.
