The Journey Of An M.Tech Graduate To JOPAT

We are sharing the success story of one of our alumni Kriti. Currently she’s working at Quintiles IMS in Gurugram. She has completed her M.Tech. with a specialization in Biotechnology, from Delhi Technical University. Her interest was in the domain of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). Later, after a lot of research, she discovered the Job-oriented Patent Analyst Training Program (JOPAT) of IIPTA.

In this 3-months JOPAT program of IIPTA, she learned about laws associated with trademarks, copyrights, and patents in India and the U.S. and how they are helpful in the IPR industry. Also, he learned about patent searching in databases. Indian Patent Office (IPO), United States Patents and Trademarks (USPTO), European Patent Office (EPO), Google Patents and World Intellectual property Organization (WIPO). She also mentioned how live classes helped her grasp the knowledge of IPR. She expressed how the JOPAT program IIPTA helped her to learn practical knowledge in the domain of IPR and also in personality development.

The term IPR denotes intellectual property rights which means the rights conferred by the creator/owner upon their innovations. They seek to protect the interests of the creators by rewarding their mental labour and allowing them to retain property rights over their creations. The creators and inventors are thus entitled to benefit from their creations.

Today she’s successfully placed at Quintiles IMS, a leading IP Firm in Haryana, on the post of Patent Analy with a decent salary package and performing well at her job. Kriti is very thankful to IIPTA for helping her to choose the right path and motivating her. We wish her luck in her future endeavours.
