Welcome to IP Law!

This course will lay a foundation of understanding for trade secret, patent, trademark, and copyright law.

These topics are NOT on the bar exam, but they are useful to lawyers serving small-business and/or not-for-profit clients, where it pays to be a generalist.

If you are maaaaybe interested in focusing on IP law professionally, this is the perfect course to take to test that interest.

If you already know you are serious about studying IP law, you really should take the the full courses in Patent, Trademark, and/or Copyright Law. This survey course can be redundant of those deeper courses.

If you really want a career in IP Law (or sports, fashion, technology, or startup law) I highly recommend earning the IP Certificate. Look it up on the McKinney website.
