  • CAREER FEST: Careers in the Patents Field

    Wed, Jan 28, 2015 @ 09:30 AM - 10:30 AM

    Viterbi School of Engineering Career Connections

    Workshops & Infosessions


    If you have (or will soon have) a degree in engineering, computer sciences, or the hard sciences (chemistry, biology, physics and related disciplines), you can take the Patent Office’s Registration Exam to become a Patent Agent. Patent agents can make up to $20,000 a year more than similarly situated engineers and scientists. The Exam is available virtually on-demand via computer. Becoming a patent agent can also be a step toward the even more lucrative career of becoming a Patent Attorney.
    If this sounds intriguing, come join Practising Law Institute (PLI) for a presentation by Mark Dighton, PLI's Director of Law School Relations and a Director of their Patent Office Exam Course. Topics for discussion include:
    • Careers for patent agents (what the work is like and where you find it), and
    • The latest info on the Patent Office’s Registration Exam (who can take it, how it works, and recommendations on how to study for this very difficult Exam).

    If you can't make the morning presentation, join us at the Law School presentation in the afternoon.

    Date: Wednesday, January 28th
    Time: 12 noon
    Location: Room 114 of the law school
