The gerontology classes I have taken have been some of the most interesting out of my time at UWL, and the professors behind the program are great! In Gerontology Club, we have found many creative ways to connect with older adults in our community and the many professionals who aid our aging population throughout Wisconsin.

The UWL Gerontology emphasis was instrumental to my career by providing a multidisciplinary foundation in gerontological coursework, research, and experiential learning. I was well-prepared to study gerontology in graduate school due to the training and mentorship that I received in the Psychology Department.

The courses included in the Gerontology emphasis are extremely beneficial to students of all programs. People are living longer and by 2050, the U.S. alone will have almost 84 million people amongst the population that are age 65 and older. It is important we continue to educate ourselves and others about how to take care of one another.

UWL has prepared me for my First Destination by giving me the opportunity to connect with others, and build quality relationships with my professors.

I have met some amazing people in nursing homes, workout classes and health professions through Gerontology Club! I feel connected to the La Crosse community and enjoy hearing their stories. The Gerontology emphasis plays an important part in my future career in healthcare.

I loved the gerontology program. It prepared me to enter into graduate school with adequate background knowledge on a population that I am immensely passionate about. The program also allowed me to preform better at my caregiving job and internship at a nursing home because I had extensive knowledge on the population that I was working with.

Alumni - Keeping in touch

Click this link that takes you to a Qualtrics survey. If you give us your non-UWL email, we'll send you the very occasional newsletter to tell you what's happening in the Psych department at UWL (don't worry, we won't spam you). You can also give us an update on what you've been up to since graduation and let us know if you're interested in sharing information about your post-graduation experiences with current Psych students.

Alumni - I need information

If you need to get in touch with your former faculty (for letters of rec, for old syllabi etc.), please don't hesitate to reach out.

You can find your former faculty listed on the Psych homepage (Our People), or you can reach out to the general Psych email address (psych@uwlax.edu).

If you're looking for an old syllabus, it's helpful if you provide as much information as possible (who taught the course, which semester did you take it, etc).
