What will I learn?
Life Course provides a straightforward, hands-on overview of human development from childhood through to old age, connecting identity, vulnerability, and care at every stage. You'll delve into major philosophical traditions, intersectionality, justice, and autonomy, while putting these concepts into practice for policy, education, work, and end-of-life choices.
