High Tech Law Curriculum

This page has two purposes.  First, it lists courses recently offered as part of the High Tech Law curriculum.  Second, we anticipate offering certain courses on a predictable schedule.  Where possible, we have indicated our expected plan.  However, courses come and go and faculty members change their plans, so this page is necessarily incomplete and subject to change.  If you really want to know if a particular course is being offered at a particular time, please contact us and we may be able to provide you with more current information about a course’s availability.

Not all courses below count for the High Tech Law Certificate or for specific specializations. Please double-check that the courses you want count towards your targeted certificate/specialization.

Note: where a course indicates it will be offered at the instructor’s discretion, we encourage you to take the course whenever you see it as its offering depends on a specific instructor’s interest and availability.
