What it is	Gerontology is the study of aging and older adults, covering how bodies and minds change with age, the psychology of getting older, and the social policies that affect seniors' lives. You'll learn about health information systems, aging-related health conditions, and how society can better support an aging population. This program suits people interested in healthcare, social services, or policy work with older people.	This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus.	Political Science at Glendon is the study of government, power, policy-making, and how societies are organized and governed. You examine these topics through focused lenses like politics in specific regions (Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East), international development, law and criminology, or social policy. The iBA option adds a mandatory year abroad and deeper integration of language study, making it suited to students who want to engage with politics globally and become fluent in French.
