Course Description:
|
This three-hour presentation provides an introduction to intellectual property law, the area of law that protects the results of human creative endeavor. The seminar will discuss each of the four separate (but often overlapping) fields that make up intellectual property law:
-
Trademarks
-
Copyrights
-
Patents
-
Trade Secrets
The seminar will discuss each field of intellectual property, discuss how rights are acquired, what may be protected, the role of agencies such as the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the U.S. Copyright Office, the process of registering trademarks and copyrights and applying for patents, maintaining rights in intellectual property, infringement of intellectual property, and new developments in each field.
