Intellectual property lawyers work at the cutting edge of technology and the arts to protect their clients' creative products. The field of intellectual property law focuses on issues relating to patent, trademark, copyright, trade secrets, and unfair competition.

Students who study intellectual property law at Chicago-Kent learn to draft intellectual property documents in the legal research and writing program. Students can also develop their litigation skills by participating on one of the law school's national competition-winning moot court or trial advocacy teams, or in national intellectual property law competitions such as the Giles Rich Patent Moot Court Competition, the Lefkowitz Trademark Moot Court Competition, or the Cardoza Copyright Competition.

Information about certificate requirements is available on the Program in Intellectual Property Law Web site.

The Intellectual Property Law Society promotes educational and employment opportunities in intellectual property. The Society hosts speakers, typically practitioners, on various aspects of intellectual property practice and assists students in career development. The Intellectual Property Law Society also sponsors field trips and a guest lecture series which provide additional opportunities for learning.
