  Internships

The International Intellectual Property Institute seeks highly qualified and motivated law, graduate and undergraduate students to join our team as interns.  Interns gain experience in all aspects of our organization and work closely with a variety of experts in intellectual property and international development.  Internship positions are available for the Fall, Spring and Summer semesters.  Internship positions are unpaid but IIPI will be as helpful as possible with providing academic credit.  Interns are encouraged to attend local talks, networking events and social functions as often as they arise.      

Law/Graduate School Internship: 

IIPI seeks interns for the summer.  Interns will assist IIPI with at least two projects: one having to do with patents and technology transfer in a developing country and the other involving trademark and copyright protection for indigenous industries in a number of developing countries. Interns will provide research, logistical, analytical and writing support for IIPI attorneys and staff. This will include preparing speeches and presentations for an international audience and cooperating with intellectual property experts from around the country.

Experience with and interest in intellectual property law and policy are essential. Current or former patent examiners, J.D.s or law students, and Spanish speakers are encouraged to apply. Academic credit or a small stipend or both may be available. If interested, please send a resume, cover letter, and 2-3 page writing sample to ajaynes@iipi.org.

The application deadline for summer internships is 15 March 2010.
