The Master of Intellectual Property Law is open to graduates in any discipline who have significant work experience in this area. Postgraduate programs in intellectual property are of particular relevance to those involved in the recognition, protection and exploitation of the creativity and innovation process. These courses suit both lawyers and non-lawyers including engineers, those involved in scientific research, computer scientists and those working in the information technology industries.
Candidates must normally complete eights units with at least five units from
the intellectual property specialisation. Those who have not completed an
undergraduate law degree will normally be required to undertake LAW7212
`Australian legal system'.
Upon completion of this course, candidates will be eligible to undertake
additional units offered by the Academy of the Institute of Patent Attorneys
and thereby qualify for registration as a patent attorney.
