This innovative curriculum will prepare TCU students to understand the diversity and complexity of the older adults as customers, consumers, clients, producers, and recipients of products, services, and programs. Responding to the opportunities and challenges of serving this population requires both ethical decision making and recognition that this issue is not just a local concern, but global as well. The result is an interdisciplinary minor which will equip students across disciplines to work with a rapidly changing aging workforce and an increasingly diverse older adult populace who possess multiple strengths, resources, and needs.
