SDU supports researchers with regard to set up legal contracts such as
- Memorandum of understanding (MoU)
- Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
- Material Transfer Agreements
- Co-funded cooperation agreements
- Commissioned research agreements
All agreements must be approved by SDU RIO Legal and the Head of Department.
TEK Innovation consults researchers to identify the appropriate contractual framework. Furthermore we assist researchers in identifying prices for commercial activities.
Agreements related to funded projects
In case of NDAs and agreements related to funded projects please contact directly SDU RIO Legal (contracts@sdu.dk). SDU RIO checks and approves these project-related agreements in dialogue with the researchers.
NDAs between students, companies and supervisors
Supervisors and students often become involved in contracts in connection with semester projects. Involved companies ask e.g. for agreements to regulate confidentiality. Please consult the guidelines for this kind of NDAs.
In addition, there are a number of other binding matters that TEK Innovation is involved in, such as letters of support, procurement of services and equipment on special terms, transfer of projects between universities, extension of project agreements, etc
