Abstract

Increasingly common among the course offerings of sociology departments is the combination course, where the objective is to present knowledge that constitutes the intersection of at least two of the more established subspecialty areas within the discipline. This article discusses the general problem of conceptual integration when preparing and teaching such a course and provides an example of how conceptual integration was achieved in a course that combined medical sociology and the sociology of aging. Major readings for the course are discussed and a topical outline is described.
