IP LL.M.
Ciao all,Wed Feb 23, 2005 07:01 PM Im interested in a good IP LL.M. program in the US. Also a general program in a law school with specific tradition and experienced teaching body in the field would be ok. So far I identified Berkeley, where I've already applied, and Washington. Is there any other law school with an ip focused program where it is still possible to apply for the fall 2005? I found a program which suits to my needs in Boston University, Chicago-Kent University, De Paul University and San Francisco University, for example, but I dont have idea about the quality of those institutions. I'd be gratefull for any feedback about the places I named above and for general advise on the matter. Hope someone can help me. Thanx in advance. Gian |

Hi Gian,Wed Feb 23, 2005 07:58 PM I would also like to focus my LLM on IP law and my first choice to that respect would be the Stanford LLM in law, science and technology ! I also applied to Berkeley. I think BU has a great reputation and a very specialised program to but I didn't apply there. Good luck |

Re: IP LL.M.
Stanford and Berkeley of coruse come first in IP, but you might also consider Washington U in St Louis and Santa Clara University, where Donald Chisum (Patents) is teaching.Wed Feb 23, 2005 08:23 PM I had a tough choice last year as I was admitted to both SCU and WUSTL, but not Stanford or Berkeley... In the end, I ended @ Cornell, because it's Ivy League and I'm not disappointed with the visiting professors in IP/IT (Dan L. Burk from U of Minnesota (Cyberspace & Copyright) and Anthony Shaw from Dewey Ballantine LLP (Patents)). However, since they are only visiting, it cannot guarantee a good prof next year in the same area... Georgetown is also neat, and the Havard's Berkman Center for Internet & Society (with John Palfrey) is a neat option, but hey, it's Harvard ;) In a nutshell : a non-specialist law school with good reputation and good visiting prof can be a good call. |

Stanford University (CA) University of San Francisco offers an LLM in Intellectual Property and Technology Law, USF may not be that known abroad, but I know that at least one USF professor is also teaching IT law at Boalt Hall / Berkeley. |

Yep, Wed Feb 23, 2005 10:26 PM Harvard deadline is very over... It was really soon (dec. 1). I had to take the TOEFL very early to be able to apply. |

Re: IP LL.M.
Hi everyone:Tue Mar 01, 2005 02:17 AM For those who has applied or will apply for IP-LLM, does anyone of you have an engineering or science background? Is it critical to have such background? I have no such background.... Does that mean I am not a desirable candidate for IP-LLM or for the IP-related legal market? Thanks |

I heard Stanford LLM program is absolutely exceptional. Only problem: 10 spots and God knows how many applicants.
