Chapter 9 - Intellectual Property: Technology Management

Many sponsored programs and other academic projects have the potential to create marketable technologies. The Division of Technology Management in the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs, in concert with various research centers and academic departments, manages the patenting and commercialization process for these promising technologies. The Division of Technology Management assists faculty, staff and students in fulfilling their responsibility to cooperate with the university in patenting, licensing, and otherwise commercializing technology for which they are inventors. Copies of Inventor’s Packets are available upon request.
