About us
Loss, grief, and bereavement are part of everyone’s life. Supporting individuals and families confronting these and other non-death loss issues requires dedication, compassion, empathy, and in-depth knowledge of psychological, spiritual, social, and cultural elements that impact death and grieving.
Marian’s Master of Science and Graduate Certificate in Thanatology prepare students for employment in organizations that focus on the delivery of care for individuals and families confronting end-of-life healthcare, bereavement issues, suicide, and more. Thanatology addresses grief and loss for varied populations including children, parents, military, and veterans. Graduates of the program are prepared to pursue careers in churches, funeral homes, hospices, hospitals, and non-profit organizations.
