Introduction

The Central University of Haryana is dedicated to teaching, research, and the extension of knowledge to the public. The University recognizes its responsibility to produce and disseminate knowledge. Inherent in this responsibility is the need to encourage creativity and scholarly works and the development of new and useful materials, devices, processes, and other intellectual property.

The creation of this intellectual property may have potential for commercialization, which contributes to professional development, enhances the University's reputation, and promotes public welfare. The University has established an IPR Cell to govern the intellectual property rights of the University, faculty members, students, and others in the work, product, ideas, and inventions created in connection with the activities of the University.

Objectives of IPR Cell

• Promote, preserve, encourage, and aid scientific investigation and research.
• Provide an organizational structure and procedures through which inventions and discoveries made in the course of University research may be made readily available to the public through channels of commerce.
• Establish standards for determining the rights and obligations of the University, creators of intellectual property, and their sponsors.
• Encourage, assist, and provide mutually beneficial rewards to the University and members who transfer intellectual property to the public through commercial channels.
• Ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations and enable the University to secure sponsored research funding.
• Supervise activities related to Intellectual Property like evaluation and filing of patents, copyrights, and designs.
• Enhance the reputation of the University as an academic research institution by pursuing the highest ideals of scholarship and teaching.
