The Hallmarks Core Curriculum

The Hallmarks Core is a carefully designed sequence of courses that all Jefferson students complete, no matter which major they choose. These 14 courses add up to 40 credit hours, or about a third of your education, as required by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This curriculum guides you progressively through your education in the eight Hallmarks learning goals. View all course options by downloading the PDF below:

Each of the Hallmarks Core courses targets one or more of the Hallmarks learning goals, while also contributing to a broader education that expands your understanding of the world.

Courses that are shown across multiple years can be taken during any of those years depending on the schedule of the individual student.
