With the rapid development of economy, China urgently needs a large number of high-quality intellectual property professionals. Experts predict that by 2020, the total demand for intellectual property professionals in China will be 55,000 to 60,000.
Due to the late start of discipline construction and the long training period, about 3,000 qualified intellectual property professionals have been sent from universities to the society in the past decade, which is far from meeting the demand.
The knowledge structure of intellectual property professionals must be interdisciplinary and compound. They need to be proficient in English, have a professional technical background, understand international and domestic intellectual property laws and practices, be proficient in writing patent documents, especially be able to write patent documents and draft relevant documents in English, and communicate with R&D departments, overseas headquarters and overseas customers in fluent English.
