<p>How common is it? Are there a lot of engineering and CS grads in law school?</p>
<p>Probably not too common. However, a science or engineering undergraduate degree followed by law school is often the route for those looking at going into intellectual property law.</p>
<p>The [UC</a> Berkeley career center](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm]UC”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm) reports in its survey of 2010 graduates only 2 bioengineering, 2 molecular and cell biology, 1 electrical engineering and computer science, and 1 applied math major who responded to the survey indicating that they are going to law school (note that molecular and cell biology is the largest major).</p>
<p>In contrast, 13 political science, 6 English, 5 rhetoric, 5 history, 5 political economy of industrial societies, and 4 legal studies majors graduating for 2010 reported going to law school.</p>
