From IP Expert to IP Manager : European Master of Intellectual Property Law and Management

January 2012

In January 2012, the sixth consecutive Master of IP Law and Management (MIPLM) will start at CEIPI in Strasbourg. Participants from all across Europe with different professional backgrounds have already successfully completed these studies. This European master’s program was designed especially for European patent attorneys and lawyers and other experienced IP professionals. Its ultimate objective is to qualify experienced IP professionals to act as IP managers with the practical skills and knowledge to deal with the new challenges of wealth creation and profit generation. Participants acquire first and foremost a new understanding of how intellectual property works in business models and are conveyed the necessary skills to achieve the systematic alignment of IP management and business objectives.

The course provides an international networking platform for IP managers and in addition enables participants to build long-lasting relationships and to further develop relevant topics within the field of IP management. Being part of this international alumni network also offers new job opportunities and publication possibilities.

The program combines legal, economic and management studies and includes lectures from leading scholars and experienced practitioners in the field of IP law and management. Due to the extensive network of lecturers in academia and industry, the MIPLM is able to continually relay the latest topics to its participants. The part-time training comprises a period of six months with monthly one-week long lectures. Successful participants will be awarded the academic degree Master of Intellectual Property Law and Management (MIPLM) by the President of the University of Strasbourg, which can be considered a prerequisite for a doctoral thesis (depending on the requirements of the university where admission is being sought).
