Jan Jancin Award

The dean or appropriate faculty member of each law school, who has a direct knowledge of the student, will determine which IP student best exemplifies excellence in the field of intellectual property law and thereby qualifies as a candidate for the award. Each dean will have the flexibility to use any reasonable criteria, including, by way of example, any of the following:

• best grades in IP courses overall;
• outstanding achievement in specified IP courses;
• best IP paper written by a student;
• determination by a faculty consensus; or
• membership and activity in student IP organizations.
