uEmployees
must disclose all inventions
u“The
University must be able to meet its obligations assumed under legally binding contractual obligations with regard to
intellectual property
rights generated by faculty and other researchers as a result of sponsored research agreements, material
transfer agreements, and other
research support agreements entered into on behalf of those faculty and research staff. Therefore, all inventions made by a University employee must be
disclosed to the
University, including inventions made on weekends, on leave, at home “in the garage,” or during paid or unpaid consulting work. Disclosure is a legal obligation of employment at the
University.”
