IPR Cell
Fostering Innovation and Protecting Creativity
About the IPR Cell
The Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Cell at Mahaguru Institute of Technology is established to foster a culture of innovation and creativity among students and faculty. In an era where intellectual capital is the key driver of progress, our cell is dedicated to creating awareness about the importance of protecting intellectual property and the legal rights associated with creative work.
Objectives
The primary objectives of the IPR Cell are:
- Awareness: To introduce the academic community to the fundamentals and significance of IPR, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and industrial designs.
- Skill Development: To provide hands-on exposure to patent search tools (such as WIPO and Google Patents) and drafting procedures.
- Facilitation: To guide projects toward patentability by teaching students how to check the novelty of their ideas and navigate the filing process.
