Anne’s Answer

There are no 4-year colleges or universities on Cape Cod. If you want to be close to Cape Cod then there are some options that might work for you. I would recommend the University of Rhode Island. It's near beaches and close to the Cape. They have a number of majors that might be a good fit, even if they aren't dedicated to geriatric studies. There are several majors in the biological sciences , if you are interested in the medical or research areas of gerontology, a major in Health Studies and one in Human Development and Family Science . Look at their website and see if there might be a major that is close to your interests.

Tina’s Answer

Go to https://www.bestcolleges.com/features/gerontology-degree-programs/ for more information.

Graduates of a gerontology degree program apply their specialized training in a broad range of careers that assist older adults. A bachelor's in gerontology provides the foundation for positions as healthcare administrators and social workers in medical centers, residential facilities, and social service agencies. Whatever the intended career path, earning a gerontology degree demonstrates you share a genuine concern for maintaining the health, productivity, and independence of the aging population.

Limited availability in Cape Cod, MA. You may have to look at other locations.

Good Luck!
