Reichman University’s MA students in Law, Technology, and Business Innovation recently participated in a transformative study tour in New York City and at Yale University. Designed to merge theoretical learning with practical industry insights, the tour gave students a comprehensive view of the intersection of law, innovation, and business in the US.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE

At Cardozo School of Law, students engaged with distinguished professors such as Prof. Felix Wu, Prof. Michelle Greenberg, Prof. Barbara Kolsun, and Prof. Bill Rosenblatt from NYU. Their lectures enriched the students’ understanding of intellectual property and technology law.
