Legal recourse
Article Abstract:
PhD graduates with a strong background in science can find career opportunities in patent, regulatory and environmental law. There is an oversupply of graduates for some disciplines in science and for the legal profession, but there is a supply shortage of graduates with both legal and scientific knowledge. New entrants to the job market can find the going is tough. A substantial investment is needed to embark on such a career, so careful consideration is necessary.
