From the Director:
For many years, the John Marshall Law School has served as a leader within the legal community in addressing issues of computer and information law and policy. A John Marshall education prepares lawyers and other professionals to thrive in the global electronic marketplace of the next millennium. John Marshall began offering courses in computer law and privacy even before establishing the Center for Information Technology and Privacy Law in 1983.
The Center provides a formal structure for a wide variety of activities, including courses, conferences and continuing education seminars, scholarly publications, student organizations, competitions, and other programs related to the field of information technology law. The Center's flagship publication, The John Marshall Journal of Computer & Information Law, is the preeminent professional journal in its field.
Specialized Degree Programs
John Marshall recently instituted two specialized degree programs in information technology law: a Master of Laws (LL.M.) for lawyers, and a Master of Science (M.S.) for business professionals and policy makers. The degree programs and other academic activities of the Center for Information Technology and Privacy Law are enriched by the leading national and international experts from practice and academe who serve on the Center's advisory board and adjunct faculty. Many of our students come to the law school with substantial relevant experience of their own; students frequently learn from one another as well as from their professors. Indeed, interaction with professors and fellow students is a key component of the academic program. At the same time, however, the Center for Information Technology and Privacy's programs are designed to be as flexible as possible; most courses are offered in the evening or on weekends, and some are scheduled as intensive workshops and master classes.
Students may enroll on a full-time or part-time basis, and may complete a degree in as little as twelve months. We welcome those who seek to break ground in this new and exciting field, and look forward to joining them as they confront the wide range of legal and policy issues presented along the information superhighway!
