The Office of Intellectual Property Administration establishes System-wide policies and procedures, develops standard forms and agreements and supports the four campus technology transfer offices through financial funding, access to a centralized technology transfer management database, and use of an in-house patent attorney for preparing and filing patent applications.
Each technology transfer office is responsible for accessing and marketing the commercially viable technologies on their respective campuses. The offices have both the responsibility and the authority to make decisions and commit resources in pursuit of technology transfer and economic development. The campus offices work directly with faculty and firms, and are responsible for all licensing and business development activities on their respective campus.
