2020 Loyola Patent Law Interview Program

[CSO]

To: All Law Students Returning For Fall Semester 2020

Loyola University Chicago School of Law is hosting the 2020 Patent Law Interview Program on Thursday and Friday, July 23-24 in Chicago, Illinois. This nationwide interview program targets patent law employers and rising 2L and 3L students.

Last year roughly 150 employers, 190 law schools, and 1,100 law students from across the country participated in the program. The program is entirely pre-selected, which means that students submit application materials to apply to interviews with the employers they are interested in, and employers then review their materials and select the students they wish to interview at the program. Last year, approximately half of the participating students were selected for interviews.

Students with undergraduate or graduate degrees in engineering or a technical science should consider registering for the program. You do not need to be patent bar eligible to register, although the vast majority of employers participating in the program are seeking patent bar eligible students.

For more information on the program, please refer to the Loyola Patent Program website at: https://www.luc.edu/law/currentstudents ... ntprogram/.

Online student registration for this year’s Patent Law Interview Program will begin on Monday, February 3 and close on Friday, March 6. Students can register at: https://epay.luc.edu/C20996_ustores/web ... STORE=true

At this stage of registration, you will only need to enter some basic information (you will upload your resume and bid on interviews later in the semester).

There is a non-refundable $40 dollar registration fee. Please contact law-careers@buffalo.edu if you are interested in attending and we will handle the fee.

Once you have registered, the program staff will communicate with you directly via email to the address that you entered when registering for the program. Please direct any questions about the program to the Patent Program Liaison in our office Dean Lisa Patterson at lpatter@buffalo.edu.
