- Patent Prosecution for Non-Lawyers taught students, through practical experience, how to identify patentable ideas and further, how to protect them. Effective founding and growth strategies for entrepreneurial ventures require a holistic understanding of a variety of substantive areas of law, including patent law. The course of study exemplified how to protect ideas that are central to the growth of businesses, large and small. Each week of the course (and each chapter of the course materials) addressed material that enabled students to identify patentable ideas and constructively participate in obtaining protection for said patentable ideas. This included discussions of intellectual property in general, patent applications, and the process of obtaining a patent. The course will focused mostly on obtaining a patent, including the common pitfalls of obtaining a patent, the parts of a patent application, drafting a patent application, receiving and responding to rejections from the Patent Office, appealing decisions from the Patent Office, continuation applications, and calculating the patent term of an issued patent., Adjunct Professor, Patent Prosecution for Non-Lawyers, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Education, 2021
