Work and Family Interrelationships

3 cr · Graduate

In this course students will engage in advanced study of the intersection of earning and caring activities of families over the life course and how these activities interrelate at the community, provincial, national, and global levels. The influence of gender and demographic trends will be explored and family, private sector, and public sector responses to the issue will be examined. There will also be an emphasis on relating current research to relevant theoretical perspectives and professional practice. May not be held with the former FMLY 7230.
