Abstract Or Scope
The University of Central Florida Office of Technology Transfer records, 1989-2024 contains United States patents, international patents, trademarks, copyrights, Certificates of Correction, and correspondence about inventions made by UCF faculty, students, and staff. These materials were collected by the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) within the Office of Research. This collection provides researchers with the ability to view firsthand what patents, trademarks, copyrights, and certificates of correction consist of and understand what the process of obtaining these documents looks like. Established in 1989, the University of Central Florida Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) serves the University of Central Florida research community and their discoveries by guiding them through the intellectual property protection, marketing, licensing, and networking processes. Through a combination of the disciplines of science, business, and law, OTT formulates a unique intellectual property plan and commercialization strategy for each discovery, promoting a transition from idea to market. Once on the market, OTT helps to manage corresponding patents, trademarks, and copyrights. The Office of Technology Transfer exists within the Office of Research.
