NCAD Research - Intellectual Property
Intellectual property rights (IP) are a matter of concern to NCAD because it is an educational institution that is fostering those who will develop into inventors, designers and creative artists, and employs persons who are already inventors, designers and creative artists.
The purpose of NCAD’s IP policy is to set out the principles relating to the ownership and exploitation of all Intellectual Property arising from design and artistic academic activities within NCAD. The policy is intended to support the protection and exploitation of NCAD IP for the benefit of society whilst at the same time recognising and rewarding the originator(s) of the IP, NCAD itself and any sponsor to the work which led to the creation of the IP.
