Also, trade secrets, licensing, antitrust issues, and intellectual property at the termination of a business. Evaluation is by exam, and possibly with problem sets. Recommended: LAW 6356  Intellectual Property  or two other intellectual property courses.  Prerequisites or corequisites: LAW 6420 Business Enterprise  and LAW 6356 Intellectual Property , or instructor permission. These requirements may be waived, with the instructor’s permission, in unusual circumstances when a student brings extensive business experience involving practice with intellectual property issues.
