Collaborative research projects

Memorandum of understanding (MOU)

Industries are encouraged to request for collaborative development of new technologies. Such requests will be accepted depending on the infrastructure and the expertise available at the time. An MOU will be signed before the commencement of the project between the client and Cell.

Identifying intellectual property opportunities

The basic aim of the maintaining intellectual property policies is to promote the progress of science and technology, to assure that discoveries and inventions are used to benefit the public, to provide appropriate royalty revenues to the Cell and the inventor, and to support University research and education through the use of invention-related income.

The Cell will grant to the sponsor, the right to negotiate an exclusive or nonexclusive license, based upon the level of sponsor support. In the event of a technology transfer, a payment should be paid to the Cell in order to transfer the technology.

Payments

Payments are negotiable as both direct and indirect costs are involved in some of these projects. All projects will require an advance payment to commence the work. On successful completion of the project, the outcome will be handed over upon receipt of the full payment.

A technology transfer fee will be levied when transferring the technology. This will vary depending on the level of support obtained from the sponsor for the work done.

Consultancy

All Faculty of Science consultancy work can be handled through the “Cell”, which promotes the University’s consultancy capabilities to external parties.

The following outline is intended as a quick and easy guide when undertaking University consultancy. Consultancy is defined as the contracting of staff for a fixed short length of time, to carry out a task, other than research and development, specified by a client. Consultancy contracts differ from research contracts in that there is no academic output, such as publications in refereed journals. Lecturing and ad hoc interaction with media is excluded from these consultancy services.

Our alumni are important to us. They have been very helpful in the past to find industrial placements for our undergraduates. Hence their input and expert advice in building this industrial/community interaction is very valuable. We at “Cell” would be willing to listen to your ideas in strengthening the relationship between the university and industry.

We plan to upload in this website, batch-wise contact lists of alumni of the Faculty of Science. If there are volunteers from different batches to undertake this task please inform us. Any alumni who are willing to assist us in establishing links with “Cell” could provide the information in the excel sheet which could be downloaded from this site. Your assistance could be in various forms such as funding, establishing contacts, ideas etc.

IP Policy for the University

Template for University IP policy was approved by the 387th Faculty board meeting on March 31, 2015 and tabled at the 86th management committee meeting on June 18, 2015 and 498th council meeting August 13, 2015.

Proposed share of revenues from Net income is under discussion at the Council level
