Philadelphia University was initially established in 1884 and merged with Thomas Jefferson University in 2017, unifying two renowned histories of innovation, education, research, and professional excellence. The new comprehensive university, known as Jefferson, is a dynamic ecosystem of teaching and learning focused on innovative 21st-century professional education and real world demands. Jefferson aims to help student lead change, not just react to it.
