Oh I may have been mistaken to say that then, thought I remembered reading that but may have been about application portfolios for art/architecture departments not necessarily written papers. Did read for grad students doing paid research that is in same category as paid staff papers and their papers are considered I.P. of the school.
With discourse forums seems like default settings are people have some time to choose if they want to edit or delete a post, with other forum system have seen it can just be one hour of time before a post is made permanent and can’t be changed without opening a help ticket request which may be denied.
Trying to find where I just read this at my Alma Mater site well here is link for if anyone wants to get a degree in I.P. law:
What Intellectual Property Lawyers Do
Intellectual Property (IP) lawyers:
- Help clients establish, protect and license intellectual property rights
- Represent creators of patentable technology; authors of automatically copyrighted creative works, such as books, music, movies, or software, and organizations with trademarks or trade secrets
- Negotiate, draft and review documents to create patents or use/ license all forms of IP
- Interpret complex statutes and regulations and clients’ scientific, cultural and business environment
- Practice in private firms of all sizes, including solo practice, in-house counsel departments, and government offices, such as US Patent and Trademark Office
“Students own their works developed in lecture-based courses or outside of any direct support from UW. If a student is an employee of the UW, including a graduate student doing funded research, then works created through the student’s employment are subject to the UW IP policy (EO 36). If a student participates in a research lab or in sponsored research, the student’s contributions to IP will be handled consistently with that research portfolio.”
It gets more confusing with patent rights for engineering looks like, may be a race for who can get to the patent office first, lol.
