In this era of liberalization and globalization, the perception about science and its
practices has undergone dramatic change. The importance of protecting the scientific
discoveries, with commercial potential or the intellectual property rights is being
discussed at all levels – statutory, administrative, and judicial. With India ratifying the
WTO agreement, it has become obligatory on its part to follow a minimum acceptable
standard for protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights. The purpose of
this course is to apprise the students about the multifaceted dimensions of this issue.
Introduction to Intellectual Property:
Historical Perspective, Different Types of IP, Importance of protecting IP.
Copyrights
Introduction, How to obtain, Differences from Patents.
Trade Marks
43
Introduction, How to obtain, Different types of marks – Collective marks, certification
marks, service marks, Trade names, etc.
Differences from Designs.
Patents

Knowledge, Patents and Healthcare – balancing promoting innovation with public
health, Software patents and their importance for India.
Different International agreements
(a) Word Trade Organization (WTO):
(i) General Agreement on Tariffs & Trade (GATT), Trade
Related Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) agreement
(ii) General Agreement on Trade related Services (GATS)
(iii) Madrid Protocol
(iv) Berne Convention
(v) Budapest Treaty
(b) Paris Convention
WIPO and TRIPS, IPR and Plant Breeders Rights, IPR and Biodiversity
IP Infringement issue and enforcement – Role of Judiciary, Role of law

enforcement agencies – Police, Customs etc. Economic Value of Intellectual
Property – Intangible assets and their valuation, Intellectual Property in the Indian
Context – Various laws in India Licensing and technology transfer.
