As a BU Law Intellectual Property & Information Law LLM student, you will pursue a range of IP and IP-related classes. That means you will have access to the law faculty consistently named to the top of Princeton Review’s “Best Professors” list, and focus their studies in the primary areas of IP: copyright law, patent law, and trademark & unfair competition law. Included among our intellectual property instructors are a number of prominent practitioners engaged in cutting-edge work at Boston’s top intellectual property boutiques and biotechnology companies.

Interested in intellectual property & information law, but not sure you want the full LLM?  We also have a concentration in IP available in the American Law Program.
