At a time where AMSS is planning to downsize, becoming a lawyer with a leading IP firm or an IP policy maker seems to be far more exciting. All this and much more was shared by IP expert Prof. Shamnad Basheer, who is currently IPR chair at the University, in a talk on career options in Intellectual Property Laws. The talk, which witnessed an unprecedented turnout, was organized by the Intellectual Property and Technology Laws Society (IPTLS) on 28th November.
In an extremely informal yet informative session, Prof. Basheer enlightened us about the myriad opportunities that lay ahead of us in this exciting field. Starting off on a humorous note, Prof. Basheer delved into the various forms of legal work in the field of IP. What could otherwise have been a boring session was considerably enlivened by Prof. Basheer’s many interesting titbits about the legal industry and practice.
Responding to queries, Prof. Basheer emphasized on a J.D instead of an L.LM especially in the field of IP and if working in the U.S. is on your priority list. He also cautioned the students about choosing foreign universities carefully, taking into consideration both general and specific field rankings. Prof. Basheer ended the session asking the students to follow their passions and assured them that the perks would follow automatically.
