One of these courses introduces them to the American legal system, and the other introduces them to legal research, writing and analysis. In addition to those introductory courses, MSL students take required and elective courses, alongside JD students, relevant to their specialty track.
The patent law track fills a growing demand for employees who help companies protect valuable ideas and products by securing patents.
The program is suited for individuals with engineering and science backgrounds, and allows these patent agents to pursue interesting and in, demand careers practicing patent prosecution and representing inventors and innovators in the process of patent drafting, submission and eventual issue process.
Once they have completed the MSL in Patent Law, students will be prepared to sit for the Patent Bar exam (though they must meet other requirements to sit for the exam and they must also register with the United States Patent and Trademark Office).
