Initiatives
The Tech Institute launched the Georgetown AI and the Legal Profession (GAILP) Initiative to create a resource and connection hub for Georgetown and beyond as we explore the rapidly growing impact of AI on legal practice and the fields of law and public policy.
The Redesigning the Governance Stack Project is working to reinvent the administrative state so that it is equipped to govern the information economy effectively and in a way that centers public values.
This advanced, interdisciplinary course brings together students from across Georgetown to tackle pressing technology policy challenges.
Through hands-on technical work—such as analyzing computer network traffic for privacy leaks—and weekly lectures on the history and practice of technology policy, students will develop leadership skills, cross-disciplinary collaboration experience, subject matter expertise, and a deep humanistic understanding of technology’s role in society.
People regularly experience civil justice problems – involving housing, consumer debt, and family arrangements – with life altering consequences. Most of these problems never make it to lawyers or courts.
The Justice Lab is devoted to designing and evaluating innovative approaches, including approaches based in technology, to help people understand how the law applies to them and empower them to solve their legal problems.
Georgetown Law’s Tech Foundations for Government Staff is a dynamic two-day immersive program designed to equip Congressional and federal agency staff with essential, up-to-date knowledge on today’s most important technologies, emerging innovations, and regulatory questions.
Held on Georgetown’s Capitol Campus, the program features expert faculty and staff who provide practical training and fresh insights into the rapidly evolving intersection of technology and law.
The Georgetown AI Governance series, co-hosted by the Tech Institute's Global TechNet Working Group and the Yale Information Society Project (through 2024), coordinates panel discussions with scholars, experts, and public and private representatives to debate issues of technology law and global digital governance.
The Global TechNet Working Group offers a platform to convene and inspire interdisciplinary research and dialogue on global technology law and policy with a particular focus on elevating perspectives from the Global South.
The Institute’s Attorney General Technology Education Network (AG-TEN) supports the efforts of AGs as they navigate complex technical questions. AG-TEN leverages Georgetown’s deep expertise in technology law and policy and its network of outside subject matter experts in order to better equip AGs to take on these challenges.
