  • LAW 115: Introduction to Intellectual Property and Contracts

    3.00 Credits
    DigiPen Institute of Technology

    Prerequisite(s): None The animation and computer software industries are founded upon the principle of intellectual property. This course introduces students to the social concepts and traditions that led to the idea of intellectual property. It surveys the various international legal systems governing intellectual property, giving special consideration to Title 17 and the local statutes that govern copyrights, trademarks, and patents in the United States. Students will grapple with fundamental issues surrounding this field such as fair use, international relations, and economics. The course will also introduce students to a basic overview of contracts including structure, traditions, and vocabulary.
