Welcome to the Office of Technology Transfer for the University of Alaska Anchorage

The Office of Research and the Graduate School and the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) facilitate the transfer of University research results for the public benefit and to improve the lives of Alaskans. OTT supports UAA by patenting, licensing, and commercializing intellectual property created by UAA faculty and staff. OTT assists faculty and staff with issues involving obtaining, using and sharing intellectual property.

In response to the recent Supreme Court decision Stanford v Roche, our UA Technology Disclosure form has been revised.   Among other issues, Stanford lost the case because its agreement used the language "I agree to assign..." rather than Roche's language which was "I hereby assign...".
