WIPO-UNIGE: Intellectual Property

19.06.2023 – 30.06.2023

The University of Geneva, together with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), will organize a two-weeks WIPO-University of Geneva Summer School on Intellectual Property (June 20 to July 1, 2022).
The Summer School usually takes place in-person during the first week at the WIPO Headquarters, and during the second week in the premises of the University of Geneva Law School. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and organizational reasons, the summer school will take place online.
The Summer School is open to approximately 80 senior students (graduate and postgraduate students) and young professionals from any field of study or discipline (from law to economics).
The Summer School offers an invaluable education program in intellectual property (IP). Selected applicants will be notified three weeks after the registration deadline that shall be made online on the WIPO website (see; https://www.wipo.int/academy/en/courses/summer_school/), except for applicants from the University of Geneva who can apply for a free participation (see application and eligibility section at https://www.unige.ch/droit/pi/summer-schools/wipo-summer-school/wipo-unige-summer-school-2022/)
The objective of the Summer School is to provide an opportunity for advanced students or young professionals to acquire deeper knowledge of Intellectual Property (IP), and to gain an appreciation of IP as a tool for economic, social, cultural and technological development and the role WIPO plays in the global administration of IP.
The Summer School program covers all main areas of IP (namely, patent law, trademarks, designs and copyright) through a pragmatic, interactive approach. Lecturers are IP experts at WIPO, the University of Geneva, or other institutions.
