Gujarat National Law University is pleased to offer Certificate Course on “Emerging Technologies and the Law” from July 29-August 2, 2019 .
About the course
Science and technology especially emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotechnology, genomics, neuroscience, and block chain are advancing at unprecedented rate. . Law is affected by these emerging technologies in two primary ways. First, law is called up on to help society govern technology and its potential impacts, both ex ante (regulation) and ex post (liability). Second, the practice of law itself is being affected and altered by technology in unprecedented ways. This course will provide an overview of both aspects of this growing intersection between law and technology.
