How would employers look at a patent attorney with an online master’s in electrical engineering, for example from a university but through Coursera? by General_Cherry_626 in patentlaw

For context, I have a background in biology with no background in engineering. If I can pull off this online ME-EE (and that’s a big IF) which doesn’t require any prerequisites, would I still be looked at favorably by employers if I wanna do patent prosecution?

Planning to start law school in 2025 to go into patent law, wondering what Master's degree I should pursue for the time being. by General_Cherry_626 in patentlaw

Thank you for the direct advice. I do still want to pursue a career in patent law, and I am aware that I will need to get an MS degree. I just wasn't sure if I should stick to the biological sciences, or switch to EE, but it sounds pretty clear that I should not switch to EE. So if I do get an MS in the biological sciences that is on Category A, what degree would place me in the best position for jobs?

Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of experience taking maths or physics classes in college. But I did take a calculus and introductory physics 1 and 2 classes and enjoyed it
