IPR
Opiskelijat istuvat pöytien ääressä jutellen ja hymyillen.

Intellectual property rights (IPR) may seem distant in the university world, but in reality, we deal with them daily. Each of us produces and utilizes works protected by copyright, such as computer programs, images, databases, and texts. Additionally, in the realm of research, inventions are born that may be patentable and serve as the catalyst for new business ventures.

Seize the opportunity by participating in our fall training sessions and learn to master IPR matters. We offer both concise webinars and more extensive, credit-bearing courses.
