Job Opportunities in Intellectual Property Rights

India is now becoming a pioneer in outsourcing services and a knowledge economy. IP is a new interest for Indian inventors and growing Industries.

India has one of the largest numbers of talent pool of technology, science and engineers graduates from around the world. It has some of the most renowned technology institutes such as IIT’s and REC’s.

A number of academic institutes have started courses on IP, which are either short term programs or specialization at the post-graduate level. Some of these are IITs that have IP awareness programs as a part of their regular curriculum except for IIT Kharagpur, National Law Schools, Private Law Colleges like NALSAR, AIPS, IIPS, etc and private institutions like Global Institute of Intellectual Property (GIIP, Delhi)

Make a Career Move into Intellectual Property Rights

Jobs in patent law can be an interesting career option for science and technology graduates. If you've got a technical degree but don't know how to use it, take a look at what a role in intellectual property can offer.

A patent attorney/agent is a specialized techno legal professional who is qualified to write, obtain and advise clients about patents and to protect the intellectual property (IP) rights in commercial products or processes.

A legal background is not required, however: the essential requirement for patent law is technical expertise. Patent attorneys may deal with patents, which protect technological innovations, and with other types of IP such as registered and unregistered designs, which protect the shape and appearance of products. A patent attorney can work for a private firm or an organization’s in-house patent department.
