JD Concentration in Privacy and Technology Law
GW Law is in the process of changing the name of our privacy and tech law concentration, along with a few of the concentration requirements. GW Law is in the process of replacing its existing concentration in Privacy, Data Security, and Technology (PDT) Law with a concentration in Privacy, Artificial Intelligence, and Technology (PAT) Law.
During this transition period, students who previously indicated an intent to concentrate in PDT Law may elect to stay with that concentration or switch to the PAT Law concentration, and other students may be eligible for the PDT Law concentration upon request. Please direct any questions about this change to Assistant Dean Adrienne Fowler.
Full information about each concentration is available in the law Bulletin.
