Graduate Certificate in Law and Technology - Communications / Data Privacy Law

LTI will offer an enhanced curriculum to students interested in exploring the many important legal questions and policy debates surrounding evolving technologies. The curriculum will equip students with a well-rounded foundation while also allowing them to pursue a particular area of interest, including communications law, intellectual property law, and information privacy law. LTI students will gain valuable practical experience through externships in government, industry, public interest organizations, and law firms. To earn an LTI certificate, students must complete a rigorous, yet flexible, course of study that provides students with a well-rounded foundation as well as specialized training in communications law, intellectual property law, or information privacy law. For each of the tracks, students must complete three mandatory courses, three electives, and a transition-to-practice course. LTI students work closely with the Institute directors in designing their course of study, choosing electives, and ensuring that all LTI requirements are satisfied.
