LWSO-SHU 205 Law & Entrepreneurship:
This would be an introductory course covering all of the main legal challenges in starting a new global business. This course is designed to provide a broad understanding of the judicial systems as well as the legal issues entrepreneurs face outside of the system (e.g., formation, ownership, product risk, intellectual property protection). To show these challenges and principles, assignments for the course include readings, case discussions, and interaction in presentation sessions as presenters and questioners. It is not enough for students to learn mere legal rules; this course endeavors to teach them how to understand how said rules apply in a real world setting and how entrepreneurs can use the law to minimize risk and liability. Thus, in addition to the lectures and readings each week, there is a case study that demonstrates how legal issues work in the context of a global start-up business.
