Summary
1. Treatment of Research Results (Patent Applications)
Intellectual property generated by the researchers and faculty members of this university essentially belongs to the institution. Inventions created by the researchers and faculty members of this university will first be submitted to the Open Innovation Center in the form of an invention registration. After the person in charge at the office examines the inventor through hearings and other methods, the matter will be submitted for an intellectual property evaluation meeting that will take place within the Center. This meeting will determine whether the university will assume the rights or not.
In cooperation with the inventor, the Open Innovation Center will then proceed to apply for the patent on the invention or discovery for which the succession of rights have been determined,
The rights that were not assumed will be returned to the researchers. Please refer to the Handling of Research Results.
