This Guide aims to give you some general pointers as to the issues,
including intellectual property rights, you should be thinking about when
considering entering into and/or supervising a Research Contract.
Your research institution's Research Office will be able to advise you on all
aspects and assist you in any negotiations. It will be the authorised office for
approving any terms and conditions.
Remember that this is just a guide and not a substitute for you taking your
own independent professional advice.
