In line with federal regulations and Rice’s IP Policy, new inventions must be disclosed to the Office of Technology Transfer for review. If you are unsure that your idea qualifies as an invention or want more information on how to decide when to disclose, you may request an evaluation by emailing our office at techtran@rice.edu.

You may submit disclosures by downloading the disclosure form in one of the formats provided below. Submit electronic copies to techtran@rice.edu. Physical copies with inventor signatures MUST also be submitted, either through campus mail to MS-705 or otherwise delivered to the OTT office at 340 Allen Center.
