Anyone from an Intellectual Property graduate school?

[Soe Nyein Oo]

Hello! New here.

I am trying to apply for an intellectual property graduate school. That being said, I don't really have any prior knowledge about I.P since I am a graduate from a maritime university with a marine engineering bachelor's degree. I want to study IP with sole to increase awareness for I.P in my country thus I don't really whether it's a good idea or not. But, the school I tried contacting did mention it accepts students from almost every field without prior I.P study background. Pardon me with my long exposition. The question I have in mind here is that which kind of research I.P graduate students do and also I really have no clue about the final project.

I hope some kind replies quick since my apply date's getting closer. 

Thanks.
