Jaharis Faculty Fellows in Health Law and Intellectual Property 

If you're a recent law graduate pursuing a future career in legal academia, the Jaharis Faculty Fellowship in Health Law & Intellectual Property offers a unique opportunity to teach, write and contribute to two of the most dynamic and intersecting areas of law. The fellowship is funded by a DePaul Law endowment and supports early-career scholars whose research bridges health law and intellectual property or information technology. 

Jaharis Faculty Fellows are mentored by faculty from both JHLI and the Center for Intellectual Property Law & Information Technology (CIPLIT), and the fellowship is designed to help you grow as a scholar and educator while supporting key work across both centers. 

Information on how to apply for the fellowship and our past fellows can be found here.
