About the School
A guru-shishya tradition,
built for a world of patents.
Gurukul of Ramana was founded on a simple frustration: most IP education teaches you the law, but not the craft. You can recite §112 and §103 and still write a claim that doesn’t survive examination.
We teach the craft. Every cohort sits with mentors who are talented in Patent Analytics, Patent Drafting, IP Strategy, etc. — and who treat your course the way they’d treat a junior associate.
Our philosophy
Practice precedes principle. We start with real prosecution histories and work backwards to the doctrine.
Our pedagogy
Small cohorts, case studies-led teaching, weekly live sessions, and 1:1 course review with Venkataramanan.
Our standard
If a graduate's course wouldn't pass a partner's desk review, we don't issue the certificate. Period.
