How does the OTM handle software?
In general, the University owns copyrightable works, including software, unless the copyrightable work is a “traditional academic work” (e.g. manuscript, thesis, textbook, or course content). University-owned software and copyrightable works are reviewed for commercial potential in the same way that patentable inventions are reviewed. For more information, see the related brochure Transferring University Software and Copyrighted Works.
