by Shubha Ghosh, Crandall Melvin Professor of Law and Director of Technology Commercialization Studies Curricular Program and SIPLI
The Technology Commercialization Studies Curricular Program continues strong with 17 students enrolled in the Advising the Start-up Sequence (Law 824/825), half of whom are also enrolled in the Innovation Law Practicum (Law 815). The Program continues in offering training in writing, research, client counselling, and drafting for those students seeking to hone their legal skills and gain a greater practical knowledge of intellectual property, business law, commercial law, and technology.
I am proud to serve as Director of the Program, a twelve-month position I started in 2016, continuing to develop as the field itself grows. The Program houses a few new acronyms: (1) Innovation Law Center (ILC) which carries forth the work of the New York State Science and Technology Law Center under the grant from Albany and (2) the Syracuse Intellectual Property Law Institute (SIPLI), which brings together the teaching, research, and service work I do on a twelve month basis. Under the SIPLI banner, I produce scholarship, some of which is described in this blog, generate conference activity at Syracuse and globally, and provide students with research supervision in their law review notes and research projects. As Director of the Curricular Program and SIPLI, I supervise and provide a spotlight on the various activities relating to intellectual property and technology law at the College of Law. Please follow the blog to learn about the fabulous work of faculty, students, staff, and recent graduates.
