Why I'm Taking This Course

I'm interested in Patent Engineering because in the Age of Information, where ideas are shared at an increasing rate, the ability to understand how ownership of an idea is determined is extremely valuable. The intersection of technology and law is intriguing to me, with intellectual property and patents at the very center. I believe we are on the cusp of witnessing a revolution in how patents and intellectual property are determined in order to encourage innovation. If I have a strong practical understanding of patents and intellectual property when that does occur, I will be able to form actual opinions on the matter and share it with others.
