Jan Jancin Award

Description

AIPLA invites institutions to nominate a law student who has excelled in the study of intellectual property law for the Jan Jancin Award. The Jan Jancin Awards are merit-based scholarship awards that recognize rising second and third year law students from diverse backgrounds who are underrepresented racial or ethnic minorities, who have expressed an interest in pursuing a career as an IP lawyer, and who have engaged in activities reflecting that interest. Only one nomination and recommendation letter from each school is accepted. Any law school having at least one IP course is eligible for participation. The dean or appropriate faculty member of each law school, who has a direct knowledge of the student, will determine which IP student among the men and women in that law school best exemplifies excellence in the field of intellectual property law and thereby qualifies as a candidate for these awards. A nomination in the form of a letter of recommendation on law school letterhead, must be submitted. Applications and required materials may be submitted through mail or email. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
