Faculty

Adult development and aging are a complex subject matter. The Erickson School faculty have created an environment and curriculum that fosters the idea of senior services as both a means and an end. Erickson School believes that properly formed and executed senior services can be a means to take care of older adults, and also be the reason they continue to thrive later in life.     

Our faculty and staff are among the very best and brightest in their respective fields, running the gamut from award-winning researchers and writers and scholars. They don’t simply recite from textbooks. They relive their experiences in the classroom. Experiences that have helped them—and that can help you—change the world as we know it.
