This page is intended as a repository of information for students, staff,
and faculty regarding commercialization, intellectual property,
non-disclosure agreements, and related issues.
Key resources include the department chair
(Hank Levy),
the past-chair
(Ed Lazowska,
during whose tenure much of the department's experience in these
matters was gained),
the commercialization oversight committee (currently
Alan Borning (ch) and
Jean-Loup Baer), and the
Office of Technology Licensing
(specifically
Fred Holt).
If you have any involvement, questions,
or concerns, consult these individuals.
Do
not just talk to your advisor -- that is not sufficient.
Note that even something as apparently innocuous as a summer employment
agreement presented to a graduate student by a company may be fraught with
peril. Don't sign these without seeking advice.
We seek to improve this page! Send us your suggestions. Better yet, implement them!
