Intellectual Property Law Program

Pave the Way for Innovation

Intellectual property is at the heart of innovation. Every day entrepreneurs, engineers, inventors, and designers are imagining the products and platforms that will shape our lives. As a student in Maryland Carey Law’s Intellectual Property Law Program, you will delve into patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, which together make up the legal foundation that protects new ideas from inception to execution, and beyond. You will also explore emerging legal challenges that impact intellectual property rights, and gain valuable practical experience working with real clients in a clinic or externship setting.

Completing the Intellectual Property Law Track will enhance your expertise and prepare you to pursue a career as an intellectual property attorney. You can tailor the mix of core and elective courses you take based on your specific interests, and work on a wide variety of cases in the Intellectual Property and Entrepreneurship Clinic.
