The Graduate Center for Gerontology at the University of Kentucky College of Public Health recognizes the diverse ways of exploring aging and older persons. But instead of limiting students within a particular discipline, or even just providing opportunities to study in several disciplines, we seek to develop in students a truly integrative and holistic way of thinking about gerontology.
