INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS POLICY GRADUATE STUDENTS
UNIVERSITI TUN HUSSEIN ONN MALAYSIA

1.0 PURPOSE

It is the University desire to encourage and reward innovative research work


within the University which leads to the creation of intellectual property (IP).
The purpose of this Policy is to encourage such research within the graduate
student community by:
(a) acknowledging the partnership between student and University in the
creation of IP during, and directly related to, the course of the student’s
studies;
(b) protecting the respective interests, including legal rights, of both parties;
and
(c) providing a mechanism for the appropriate sharing, in a mutually
beneficial manner, of the financial benefits obtained from the commercial
exploitation of the resultant IP.

2.0 DEFINITIONS

IP - Intellectual Property

“Intellectual property” - Any Intellectual Property protected under


Malaysian law including Patent, Trade
Mark, Copyright, Industrial Design,
Geographical Guide and Integrated
Circuit Design.

“Student” - means a person who has been enrolled


for a graduate study program at the
University

37
“Thesis” - refers to the academic writings submitted
in fulfillment of the requirements for the
award of the doctoral degree or the
masters by research degree. The word
“thesis” is also used in general to refer to
the master’s project report and research
dissertations, which are the documents,
submitted in partial fulfillment of the
requirements for the award of the degree
of masters by coursework or mixed-mode,
as well as the undergraduate project
reports. It also includes output from thesis
such as ideas, algorithm and
pseudocodes, figures/diagrams, product,
design, source code, function and
formula.

University Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia

3.0 POLICY CONTENT

3.1 Intent
The University acknowledges that the issues in regard to the IP of
graduate students created during, and directly related to, the course
of their supervised research studies are different to those of staff who
create IP during the course of their employment at the University. For
this reason, it is essential for the student and the University, in
partnership, to develop Intellectual Property Rights of Graduate Policy
including University and student ownership of the IP that is tailored to
the particular circumstances of the IP that the student has created or
anticipates creating.

38
The intent of this Policy is not for the University to automatically
assume that it owns all the IP created by its graduate students. The
University’s view is that, as such IP is produced with the assistance of
the University through its staff and other resources; the University has
a part-ownership of the IP. If it wishes to exercise a claim on ownership
of the IP, the University will enter into an agreement with the respective
student, in accordance with this Policy, to share the financial benefits
that may arise. Should the University waive ownership, the student is
free to make his or her own arrangements regarding the IP.

Students who are also staff and whose staff roles do not include a
research component will be considered as students and this Policy will
apply provided that the IP which has been created has arisen as part
of their graduate studies. The UTHM IP Policy 2011 will apply to those
students who are also members of the academic staff and whose staff
roles include a bona fide research component.

When using the IP created by a graduate student, the supervisor


concerned has an obligation to declare both the supervisor’s and the
student’s respective roles in creating the IP. A supervisor may not
commercially exploit the IP created with a student without the express
written agreement of both the student and the University.

3.2 Copyright in Thesis

3.2.1 Copyright in thesis and dissertation is owned by the University


with all postgraduate students automatically being assigned a
non-exclusive royalty-free license.

39
3.2.2 UTHM will have the right to digitize and make public thesis and
dissertations and place these in the UTHM Institutional
Repository. This will be controlled by the University in
accordance with its normal academic practice taking into
account the Institutional Repository Policy.

3.2.3 However, where a sponsor, funding body or consulting parties


requires IP to be transferred or assigned to it, the copyright shall
be dealt with in accordance with those requirements.

3.3 IP Created by Student

3.3.1 UTHM is the owner of the IP created by Students in the course


of their thesis or dissertation, except in any of the following
circumstances where the Student reserves the right to claim
some or all rights of ownership where the University (acting
through the Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Research and
Innovation or their delegate) expressly waives its right in writing:
3.3.1.1 The inventive step has not been assisted by a Staff;
3.3.1.2 The IP does not rely on prior IP owned by the
University;
3.3.1.3 The IP is not part of a set of IP generated by a team
of which the Student is a member and the University
considers that it would be in the best overall interests
of the team and the University for the IP to be
managed by the University;
3.3.1.4 The generation of the IP has not involved use of
University Resources and/or services beyond that
which is needed to pursue the Student’s agreed topic
of research.

3.3.2 Before being given permission to work on a specific research


project, a Student may be required to enter into an IP

40
agreement with the University and/or Third Parties, which may
include assigning some or all of his/her IP rights to the
University and/or to Third Parties. In such cases, the Student
shall be given an explanation of the need for such assignment
and an opportunity to seek independent legal advice.

3.3.3 Where the University owns intellectual property created by a


student, the University will ensure that such ownership does not
interfere with the assessment of the student’s academic
performance or the grant of an award. The University will not
normally consider assisting a student to patent an invention or
otherwise commercialize intellectual property originated by the
student unless the student is prepared to assign the patent
rights or other intellectual property rights to the University in
accordance with this policy.

3.3.4 A Student who is also a Staff of the University will be regarded


as a Staff with respect to IP arising in the course of that
employment.

3.3.5 Students shall not do any of the following in relation to the


University’s IP:
3.3.5.1 Apply for a patent or other registrable property right
without the permission of the University;
3.3.5.2 Enter into any contracts, discussions or negotiations
prejudicial to the University’s IP with Third Parties
without the permission of the University; or
3.3.5.3 Knowingly act in any way that is prejudicial to the
University’s IP rights.

41
3.3.6 When a Member of the University knowingly creates IP that is
owned by the University and which is potentially
commercialisable, he or she must disclose the IP to the
University (through the Deputy Vice-Chancellor or their
approved delegate, the latter appointed in accordance with
protocol distributed by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor from time to
time) on a timely basis and prior to any external disclosure.

3.3.7 If requested by the University, Inventor/s shall supply all details


needed to evaluate and protect the IP.

3.3.8 Students who participate in a research contract with Third


Parties will ensure that they are familiar with, and abide by, the
terms of that contract.

3.4 Publication

3.4.1 In order to safeguard any IP created within the University, it is


important that students are cautious in publishing the results of
research activity with the potential commercial applicability. It
would be in the best interests of the student and the University
to not publish until the supervisor has made a final assessment
on commercial applicability and protection of the IP. This
decision shall be made expeditiously, so that publication of the
student’s work is not unreasonably delayed.

42
