DESCRIPTION

This course is designed to provide students with the knowledge and

skills on intellectual property rights (IPRs) and their management,
help them recognize the importance of managing intellectual
property (IP). Upon completion of this course, students should be
able to accomplish the following objectives:

Course Understanding, defining the terminology and concepts in

objectives CO1
IPRs; the management of IP
(CO)
Providing knowledge of IP laws and regulations, both at
CO2
national and international levels

Identifying IP that can and cannot be protected; how to protect

CO3
IP

61
 Considering the most important element for IP management,
CO4
the IP policy;

Explaining how to handle certain IP issues, how to manage IP

CO5 “happenings” with the establishment of an IP management
office

Reviewing agreements used for the protection of IP;

CO6
Conducting a negotiation exercise

Searching scientific and patent databases; writing and keeping

CO7
a laboratory notebook for IP protection

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

CLO define terminology and concepts in IPRs and their

1 management
identify different types of IP, the rights of ownership, scope
CLO
of protection as well as the ways to create and to extract value
2
from IP
recognize the important role of IP in organizations of different
CLO
sectors for the purposes of product and technology
3
development
Course get an overview of the world IP scene; related IP conventions

outcomes
(CLO)
CL0 understand at a basic level about Vietnamese laws and
5 regulations governing IPRs

CL0 identify important components of an IP policy

6

CL0 be familiar with the activities of an IP management office

7

CL0 recognise several types of IP agreements and how to

8 negotiate an IP agreement

62
 CL0 search scientific information and patent on online databases
9

CL1 write and keep a laboratory notebook for IP protection

This course will provide students with basic information regarding
the associated rights and management of IP, such as ideas, patents,
copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and plant variety protection
from a management and engineering perspective to best support
technology and innovation processes.
Specifically, the course will look at the main terminology and
concepts in IPRs and their management. It will equip students with
Course general understanding of IPRs, their scientific and economic
descriptions importance, and forms to protect them. It will also introduce world IP
scene with related conventions and treaties, Vietnam national laws
and regulations. It will look into the IP policy and how to develop
one. The course also describes different aspects of an IP management
office, and how to handle certain IP issues. The course will provide
several types of agreements used in transferring IP from one
individual or organization to another, important sections of each
agreement, how to draft and negotiate them.
