MPH Attonery Mark Myers teaches Quantum Computing Course at UConn Law
The University of Connecticut School of Law has announced the new course, “Quantum Computing and Intellectual Property Law,” to be taught by in the 2027 Spring semester. (https://coursecatalog.law.uconn.edu/law-course-catalog/course/LAW/7274/). The course will be taught by Attorney Mark Myers of McCormick, Paulding & Huber PLLC. Students will be introduced to the variety of ways that the advent of quantum computing may affect – and be affected by – the law, particularly intellectual property law. Students had the opportunity to exercise skills essential to the work of an IP lawyer, including efficiently absorbing enough understanding of an emerging technology to be effective and knowledgeable advocates for clients inventing, adopting, or affected by new technologies. The course will be based on Dr. Myers’ recent paper, “A Survey of Quantum Computing for the Working Attorney at the Dawn of the Fault-Tolerant Era” available as a preprint at https://zenodo.org/records/22031924.
