The KU Center for Technology Commercialization (KUCTC) facilitates the transfer of technology by:
- Assisting KU researchers with intellectual property protection and commercialization
- Maintaining entrepreneurial and industry resources, and
- Summarizing technology transfer activity for statistical and outreach purposes.
KU has a strong tradition of effective technology transfer built on research in such fields as drug development and delivery; education and human development; biosciences, biofuels and bioengineering; information technologies and informatics; and remote sensing. Also important is the education of students, faculty and the public about the economic importance of entrepreneurial activity.

InventorsInventions and creative works may occur in any field and can potentially lead to commercial products and/or processes. Some inventions and creative works require protection through use of the patent process while others more readily lend themselves to trademark or copyright protection. The University of Kansas Center for Technology Commercialization is available to assist researchers and inventors who may want to protect their intellectual property in the most appropriate method. |
