Program
CEIPI offers a " long " tuition, which runs for the approximate duration of an academic year; it is divided into autonomous courses: mid-September/February and early February/mid-May.
- A " Patents " course, offered during the first semester of the academic year, leading to the International Industrial Studies Diploma in " Patents ".
- A " Trademarks and designs " course, offered during the second semester of the academic year, leading to the International Industrial studies Diploma in " trademarks and industrial designs ".
Students who pass the " Patents " and " Trademarks and designs " examinations are awarded the Diploma in International Intellectual Studies.
Note that most of the courses are in french, except for a few of them which are in english.
The complete full year programme « Patents » and « Trade Marks, and Designs » (two semesters) could count towards a six month reduction of the necessary professional experience required to prepare for the European Qualifying Examination.
