Curriculum
The Summer School program provides an opportunity to senior students, young professionals and government officials to acquire deeper knowledge of each domain of intellectual property (IP) and of the role and functions of WIPO.
This onsite program consists of lectures, case studies, simulation exercises and group discussions on selected IP topics, with an orientation towards the interface between IP and other disciplines.
A certificate of participation is awarded to participants who successfully complete the program requirements. To receive a certificate of participation, participants will be expected to be present for no less than 80% of the sessions and take part in discussions and projects.
Before applying, applicants should consider the required commitment to 8-hour day (with two half hour coffee breaks and a lunch break in-between).
