Course Overview
The IP/TL curriculum allows students to study introductory and advanced intellectual property law and to scrutinize the politics affecting those areas of the law under the guidance of leading scholars in the field. Students participate in practical skills courses taught in small groups by teams of experienced intellectual property lawyers. The IP/TL LLM student body is drawn from two distinct sources. First, we admit JD graduates from across the U.S. who desire to focus their legal expertise through one year of intensive study of intellectual property law. Second, we admit experienced intellectual property attorneys from abroad who want to broaden their IP knowledge to include U.S. and international intellectual property. Internships IP/TL LLM students are encouraged to apply for unpaid internships either during their academic program or the summer after the program. Alumni and friends of the LLM program offer students opportunities at in-house counsel settings and at law firms of all sizes.
