The Law and Technology Student Society (LTSS) is the Centre and the Faculty of Law's official student-run club for law students who have an interest in technology law and policy.
The LTSS welcomes students who are interested in learning about the intersection of law and technology. Not only does this include technology law, but also how technology shapes the law and the legal community.
The LTSS is composed of students who have a common interest in law and technology-related issues. We encourage students with interests in IP, telecommunications and broadcasting, privacy law, biotechnology, data security, AI, robotics, VR, AR, etc. to become a member and join us throughout the year for events.
Events
Each fall the LTSS hosts an IP firm tour, which coincides with Ottawa IP firm recruitment. The LTSS also hosts a panel discussion in October with Ottawa IP lawyers to provide information on career opportunities in IP for law students, as well as for science and engineering students
For the past two years, the LTSS has hosted 'Encryption 101' where students learn how to use technological tools to protect both personal and client information. The LTSS also works with the University of Ottawa Centre for Law, Technology and Society (CLTS) to encourage students to take technology law courses and seek out research assistant positions with tech law professors on research projects. The LTSS and CLTS also collaborate on events, including one which features technology law professors looking for 1L students to become research fellows in the Technoship program.
The LTSS is passionate about bridging the gap between technologists, lawyers and policy makers. Get involved with the LTSS today!
