The purpose of this Intellectual Property Disclosure Form is to record intellectual property that was created and the circumstances under which it was created.  It provides the basis for a determination of patentability, for drafting a patent application, and/or for registering a copyright or trademark.  This is a legally important document, which should be prepared carefully.

An Intellectual Property Disclosure Form should be completed when something new and useful has been conceived or developed, or when unusual, unexpected, or nonobvious research results have been achieved.  Where appropriate, the University endeavors to patent intellectual property created by its faculty, staff, and/or students through its Research and Service Foundation (KSURSF) and license such intellectual property to industry for further development and commercialization.  Royalties derived from any such license will be shared with the inventor(s) in accordance with the University鈥檚 Intellectual Property Policy.
