Intellectual Property Law Program: Co-ops

In collaboration with the Earle Mack School of Law's Co-op Program, the Intellectual Property Law Program has developed a select group of co-op placements specifically for students pursuing the concentration. These placements range from working with the intellectual property practice group at a leading national law firm based in Philadelphia, to assisting a local pharmaceutical company with the management of its IP assets, to a local non-profit which provides legal counseling to entertainment talent pertaining to developing and protecting their creations. These placements are designed for students entering their third year of study who have completed the core courses in the concentration’s curriculum. They often require a minimum GPA or other qualification.
