The Intellectual Property Law and Knowledge Management advanced master’s programmes are designed to train graduates to work as legal practitioners or management in knowledge-intensive industries and research institutes. The programme is divided into three terms, which are spread over one or two years, depending on whether the student is full or half time.

The advanced master in Intellectual Property Law and Knowledge Management (LL.M.) is primarily aimed at lawyers and technology transfer officers wishing to advance their international career in cross-border litigation practice, legal services and knowledge management involving all fields of IP law. A new specialisation track in Entrepreneurship, IP Management and Valorisation is on offer from September 2012. This will be of interest to law and business graduates with an interest in technology-driven industries.

The advanced master in Intellectual Property Law and Knowledge Management (MSc.) is aimed at graduates with a science or technical qualification (e.g. biology, chemistry, electronics, engineering, pharmacology, physics, etc.) wishing to become experts in the field of intellectual property, including the preparation to become a European Patent Agent. The MSc is recognized by the European Patent Office as enabling qualifying participants to obtain a reduction of six months in the professional training period for the European Qualifying Exam. Normally a period of three years of professional experience is required. This remission is of interest to persons with a prior degree in science and technology taking the (part-time two-year) IPKM MSc alongside their employment. The IPKM MSc is one of the few academic master programme on offer to have been awarded this status. The IPKM team will endeavor to maintain this annual accreditation for the years to come.

Since Spring 2012 the IPKM is a member of the European Intellectual Property Institutes Network (EIPIN) in partnership with: Queen Mary Intellectual Property Research Institute, University of London; Magister Lvcentinvs, University of Alicante; Centre for International Intellectual Property (CEIPI), University of Strasbourg; Munich Intellectual Property Law Center (MIPLC). Ten IPKM students per year will have access to the annual EIPIN Congress and IPKM Premium Honours Program and will receive official EIPIN status upon graduation from the IPKM.
