IP Scholarships Available to Seattle U Law Students

 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SCHOLARSHIPS

Three opportunities are available this year to Seattle University law students with a strong interest in the field of intellectual property law:

Seed IP Law Group Founders Scholarship
WSBA IP Section Scholarship
Westin Scholar / International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) Award

Applications Due by Noon on Friday, March 22, 2024

Each of these three scholarship committees seek to recognize a student who has a demonstrable interest in the practice of intellectual property law (whether litigation or transactional work) in the areas of patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret protection, arts and entertainment, advertising law and/or the intellectual property aspects of business. Recipients will be honored at the respective spring banquets for each of these groups – dates to be announced.
