Summary
This course will introduce various information technology policy issues including the IT innovation ecosystem; Internet governance and use; electronic voting; intellectual property law and economics; technology transfer, intellectual property policies; antitrust; IT workforce issues; computer security and critical infrastructures; privacy and encryption; legislative threats; network markets, interoperability, and standards.
The course is a 4-site distance-learning experiment involving the University of Washington, UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, and Microsoft. Lead instructors will be Ed Lazowska (UW Computer Science & Engineering) and Steve Maurer (UCB Goldman School of Public Policy).
The course will meet Thursday evenings from 6:30-9:20 (the UW classroom is CSE 305; the Berkeley classroom is 290 Hearst Mining Building; the Microsoft classroom is 113/1159; the UCSD classroom is AP&M 4301), with two 15-minute breaks at approximately 7:20 and 8:20. The first course session will be Thursday September 30. The final course session will be Thursday December 10. There will be no class on November 11 (Veterans Day) and November 25 (Thanksgiving). There will thus be 9 3-hour course sessions.
Course requirements will include substantial reading, active class participation (to the extent possible given the crufty electronic format), and a substantial term project that is essentially a "balanced policy brief" on some topic related to IT policy.
