IP in Education

The very popular IP in Education programme for secondary school students is delivered nationwide & in conjunction with the Student Enterprise Programme.

The informative and topical sessions on intellectual property are specifically targeted at Transition Year students who typically take part in events such as the Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition and the Student Enterprise Programme where intellectual property may be considered as part of their entries.

The programme, which is a one-hour presentation entitled “What is Intellectual Property?” focuses on providing simple, relatable examples to explain and de-mystify intellectual property in an accessible and engaging manner. The Intellectual Property Office of Ireland uses topical information to demonstrate the relevance of IP in all our lives and how much it influences everyday choices and decisions.

It explains in plain English the differences between patents, trade marks, designs and copyright. Topics such as artificial intelligence and the challenges for IP in the digital world are also discussed.
