Elective courses

Three required; Must be different from the courses used to fulfill the Required Courses — e.g., Copyright law cannot count as both a Required Course and an Elective; note that not every course listed as an elective will be a course focused on intellectual property law topics, but may, rather, be a course focused on topics complementary to intellectual property law.
