Texas A&M University School of Law was chosen to participate in the U.S. Department of Commerce’s U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Law School Clinic Certification Pilot Program this fall.

Texas A&M Law School was selected for the patent program as well as the trademark program based on its solid intellectual property curricula, pro bono services to the public and community network and outreach.

The clinic pilot program enables law students to practice patent and/or trademark law before the USPTO under the guidance of an approved faculty clinic supervisor.

The USPTO announced the selection of the 19 law schools that will join the program in a press release on Wednesday.
