台灣已經成為高齡社會，人口結構正快速老化，這個趨勢影響社會的所有層面，包含社會活動與相關的知識。大學必須提供學生相關知識，以便未來在各行各業都必須面對這個議題。這門課程從社會學的視野剖析討論人口結構改變所產生的社會新貌，理解並分析高齡社會所衍生的各項課題，作為進階高齡社會研究的基礎知識與態度。高齡社會所面臨的不僅只是人口老化的健康問題與經濟安全議題，它同時也與家庭結構與生活型態息息相關，因此高齡化的進程將逐步帶動空間活動的調整、並促進相關產業的發展。本課程將提供學生一個全面性的圖象，以求能夠更具體掌握未來台灣必須面對的高齡社會。Taiwan has become an aging society, and its population structure is aging rapidly. This trend affects all aspects of society, including social activities and related knowledge. Universities must provide students with relevant knowledge so that they will have to face this issue in all walks of life in the future. This course analyzes and discusses the new social landscape caused by changes in population structure from the perspective of sociology, and understands and analyzes various issues derived from the aging society, which serves as the basic knowledge and attitude for advanced research on the aging society. What an aging society faces is not only the health issues and economic security issues of the aging population, it is also closely related to family structure and lifestyle. Therefore, the process of aging will gradually drive the adjustment of space activities and promote the development of related industries. This course will provide students with a comprehensive picture so that they can more specifically grasp the aging society that Taiwan must face in the future.
