"If you think Copyrights and Contracts are dry subjects, think again. Puja brings tremendous vibe to her classroom, in person and online; both courses are program favorites. Licensing and rights management is a great career path in publishing, and several of Professor Telikicherla's students have gone into these roles professionally, but all students in the GW Graduate Program in Publishing learn invaluable insights and skills in copyright, contracts, licensing, and permissions that have an impact throughout their careers."
- John Warren, Program Director, Publishing MPS
