GWU Intellectual Property Summer Program in Munich

*George Washington University Law - **Munich Intellectual Property Summer Program

*
As a complement to its leading intellectual property program in Washington, DC, GW Law offers a four-week intellectual property law program in Munich, Germany, a vibrant city less than an hour from the Alps, known as Europe's "Intellectual Property Capital." In the summer of 2010, the program will run from June 28 to July 24. The ABA-accredited program offers eight one-credit courses of which students
can choose up to four, as well as special lectures and visits to local IP institutions such as the European Patent Office. In 2009, 21 students (including students from GW, other US ABA approved law schools, and students at foreign law schools) participated in the program. The eight courses offered were also open to LL.M. students at the Munich Intellectual Property Law Center. This year the GW Law School will again offer eight one-credit courses and will look to enroll a diverse
body of students as in years past.

The courses offered for the 2010 program are as follows:
*
1st Session, June 28th - July 10th:*

* 9-10:45am: Cross-Border Trade in Intellectual Property, Professor Dan Burke
* 11am-12:45pm: Computer Crime, Professor Orin Kerr
* 2:45-4:15pm: Technical Protection of Authors' Rights, Professor Edward Damich
* 4:30-6:15pm: The Federal Circuit, Professor John Whealan

*2nd Session, July 12th - July 24:*

* 9-10:45am: Theoretical Foundations of IP, Professor Michael Madison
* 11am-12:45pm: International Patent Law, Professor Margo Bagley
* 2:45-4:15pm: IP and Indigenous Heritage, Professor Silke von Lewinski
* 4:30-6:15pm: TRIPS, Patents, and Public Health, Professor Greg Dolin

*Eligibility *
Applicants in countries (such as the United States) in which law is studied at the graduate level must have completed at least one full year of full- or part-time study at an accredited law school at the time the program begins. Applicants in countries (such as Germany) in which law is studied at the university level must have completed at least two years of legal education at an institution recognized as capable of
conferring degrees which fulfill a necessary condition for the graduates to practice law in the country of the institution. While we anticipate that the majority of students in the program will be law students at U.S. law schools, applications are welcomed from eligible applicants from throughout the world.
*
**English Language Requirement *
This program is conducted entirely in English. Students whose native language is not English and who have not studied for at least two years at a university in which the principal language of instruction is English must demonstrate their competency in English by submitting proof of a computer-based TOEFL score of at least 250, a Cambridge CPE score of at least 60, or a IELTS score of at least 6.0.
*
**Application Procedure*
Students interested in participating in the program must complete and submit the

* Munich Summer Intellectual Property Program Application.
http://www.law.gwu.edu/Academics/degrees/summer_programs/munich/Documents/app_munich2010.pdf [pdf]

Please read the disclosures on the Disclosures and Frequently Asked
Questions
http://www.law.gwu.edu/Academics/degrees/summer_programs/munich/Pages/ FAQS.aspx>page
before submitting your application. Applications will be considered as they are received. Once the maximum number of 30 students for each two-week session have been admitted to the program, a limited number of applications will be accepted for a
waiting list.

Students admitted to the program will have to pay a non-refundable deposit of $500 within two weeks of receiving notification of admission to secure their place in the program. The deposit will be credited toward program tuition. The balance of the tuition will be due on June 1, 2010. Payment of the application fee may be made by check or money order in U.S. funds and drawn on a U.S. bank and made payable to The
George Washington University; further details on payment of tuition fees will be provided upon admission to the program.
*
**Fees *
Tuition for the program is $1650 for each two-week session, or $3300 for the full four-week program. The additional cost of required books and written materials is estimated to be approximately $200; some materials may be made available cost-free as .pdf files, and will be printed for students only upon their request.
*
**Cancellation and Refunds*
GW does not anticipate canceling the program. However, if it becomes necessary due to world events, gross under enrollment (fewer than 20 students), or other circumstances to cancel or significantly change the program, all applicants and/or admitted students will be promptly notified and provided a full refund of all monies paid within 20 days of the date of cancellation or significant change. Students will be given an opportunity to withdraw from the program with a full refund of all monies paid if the U.S. State Department ever declares the program site to be an "Area of Instability" or if a U.S. State Department Travel Warning is ever issued for Germany. For a cancellation that occurs after a deposit has been paid, we will use our best efforts to make arrangements for each student enrolled to attend a similar program, if the student so desires.

USA: Summer Scholars Pre-College Programs at George Washington University

"GW Summer Scholars encourages high school students to discover and develop their talents through unique learning experiences guided by engaging faculty at The George Washington University. Choose the 6-week program for college credit or the compressed
10-day mini-courses to investigate a topic of interest. Both programs provide an exceptional opportunity for international students and US citizens living abroad to experience GW and discover Washington, D.C.

The 6-week program is open to students finishing their junior year in high school. Students enroll in an introductory college level course with GW undergraduates, as well as a writing seminar. Outside the classroom students participate in enrichment activities such as seminars and workshops that deepen their understanding of the collegiate setting and Washington, D.C. The 6-week program application deadline for US Citizens is April 15, 2009. The deadline for international students is March 1, 2009. International students who are accepted into the 6-week program will receive an I-20 letter for applying for an F-1 visa.

The 10-day mini-courses create an intensive hands-on experience for students
completing grades 9 – 11. Highly interactive seminars and daily field trips provide a balance of academic rigor and fun for the students who are interested in exploring a particular field. This year’s mini-courses are: Biomedical Engineering, Photojournalism, Election Politics, Environmental Studies, Museum Studies, US Foreign Policy, Interior Design, Law and Evidence, and Very Practical Politics. The mini-course application deadline for US citizens and international students is April 30, 2009.

The resources of Washington, D.C., are an integrated part of Summer Scholars’ academic learning. Students enjoy both an urban college experience at the Foggy Bottom campus as well as a residential environment at the Mount Vernon campus in northwestern DC. Although participation in Summer Scholars does not imply admission to GW, Summer Scholars gives students first-hand knowledge to assist them in making a future college decision.

Summer Scholars offers an unmatched learning experience in one of the world’s most culturally vibrant cities, providing the first steps toward a successful college career. Interested students may obtain an application by visiting www.summerscholars .gwu.edu or by contacting our office at 202-242-6802 or scholars@gwu. edu.

Sincerely,

Barbara Frank, Director

GW Summer Scholars Programs

USA: Forte International School of Music and Language (ages 13-18)

The Forte International School of Music and Language

We are happy to announce an exciting new summer or winter program for youth (ages 13-18) to study intensive accent-free English and music, while having fun in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. The Forte International School of Music and Language (www.forteamerica. com ) is part of Forte Academy of Music www.forteacademy. com), an established school of music in Centennial, Colorado.

We are limiting the number of students to 25 per session. Students will stay with families of our American students. They will be encouraged to speak only English. Music instruction also will be only in English. We have experience teaching music to students with very little English. The English instruction in the context of private music instruction has been very successful. Classes for intensive accent-free English instruction will be divided into groups depending on student’s English skill. The instruction will center around the activities students will encounter during their stay in America.

The music instruction will be geared to the student’s interest and ability. For example, if a student is a classical pianist and wishes to further their instruction, they can; however if they want to try playing jazz or a different instrument, that is also an option. The program is tailored for each student, from beginning to advance levels. Instruments taught are piano, violin, flute, saxophone, drums, and voice. The excursions and recreational activities can also be adapted for each student.

Students may book 2, 3, or 4 week program, with special pricing for our three week recommended program.

The safety and well-being of our students is our foremost concern. They will be strictly supervised. All of our faculty, staff and families have been thoroughly evaluated. We have a record of teaching over 5000 students without incident.

We also have a seminar on studying music at American Universities We encourage parents to travel with their children and they can have a vacation in the Mountains while their children our in the program. These arrangements can be made in their country or we could help.

If you have any questions, please contact me via e-mail mikereinker@ comcast.net or phone 001 303-932-9644.
