Invention disclosure

The first step in protecting your intellectual property is completing an invention disclosure. Please submit the disclosure to the OTC through our online Invention Portal. Access the portal using your Rowan University credentials.

Invention Portal

Once the OTC receives your invention disclosure submission, the office will contact you to confirm receipt and assign a unique number to your invention or technology.

The ownership of inventions made while consulting for an outside company depends on the terms of your consulting contract. It is essential to clearly define the scope of work in consulting contracts to minimize issues related to ownership of inventions created from University research.

If you have questions about the submission process, please email otc@rowan.edu.
