WHAT IF AN INVENTION IS MADE ON AN EMPLOYEE'S OWN TIME?

An employee's invention, regardless of whether University time or resources are used, must be disclosed according to University procedures. However, if an employee believes an invention to be his/her own, the disclosure form may be accompanied by an explanation of the circumstances to the VPRIT Office, who will then make a determination on ownership of the invention.
