专业概况

The concentration in patent practice within the MLS degree program prepares students for the practice of patent law as registered patent agents with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The program focuses on providing students with substantial doctrinal knowledge about patent law as well as practical skills training that includes a capstone clinical course, relevant in the patent law field.

Undergraduates with a degree in engineering or hard science can draft and submit patent applications on behalf of themselves and others after passing the patent bar exam and becoming a registered patent agent with the USPTO. Additionally, many law firms, corporations, entrepreneurial ventures and others hire nonlawyers to draft patents.

At the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law, the patent practice program provides students with a detailed understanding of patent law and a general understanding of intellectual property and the U.S. legal system. Skills gained enable students to successfully assist clients in securing their patentable invention rights.

Career Opportunities

Trends show an increase in the hiring of patent agents by many law firms, large corporations and other companies that rely on patent prosecution expertise provided by these nonlawyers who are approved by the USPTO to represent individuals and companies in the patent prosecution process.
