Intellectual property (IP) is the property of your mind or proprietary knowledge. It is a productive new idea that you create. This can be an invention, trade mark, design, brand or even the application of your idea. This can also include original contributions that are part of larger industry or externally funded projects.
Intellectual property deeds are actioned for the following reasons:
Usually assigning the IP will be indicated as required by supervisors at the time of recommending a student for candidature. However, there are some instances where the IP is required to be assigned such as if the grant is awarded after the student commences their candidature, or there are major breakthroughs during the research.
IP Counselling is requested via Service One.
For further information on IP at Flinders, refer to the Intellectual Property Policy
If you need some further information on IP, you can complete the Epigeum online course. If you have not already set up an Epigeum account, you can do so by referring to instructions for HDR students or instructions for HDR supervisors documents.
An understanding of intellectual property is essential for researchers in any disciplinary field. This course will provide a clear explanation of this subject area and will guide you through many of its practical applications, from publishing papers to commercialising research. The course provides Master's students and PhD candidates with a grounding in the key areas of IP, from copyright and publishing to patents, trademarks, design rights, confidentiality, ownership, and exploitation
