Syllabus:

This course aims, through a treatment of laws relating to trademarks, confidential information, designs and copyright, to examine the protection provided by the law in regard to ideas, inventions, information and other forms of creative effort. The course also aims to explore how the law must balance interests and protect investment while taking into account public welfare and technological developments. The course will explore the interrelationships between the different regimes of IP protection addressed. It will also consider practical issues arising in relation to selected issues, such as specific technological developments (e.g., generative AI and the designs regime) and the capacity of IP regimes to be more culturally accommodating (e.g., indigenous cultural and intellectual property rights). Students completing this course should have a basic grounding in the law of the area, its limitations, policies, and objectives, including the basic features of the various systems of protection, as well as key emerging challenges in this area of law.
