12 Texas Tech University System (TTUS) Intellectual Property Policy Fosters the traditional freedoms of the TTUS faculty, staff, and students in matters of publication and invention, through a fair and reasonable balance of the equities among authors, inventors, sponsors, and TTUS.

13 Texas Tech University System (TTUS) Intellectual Property Policy Outlines the respective rights that members of the faculty, staff, and students have in intellectual materials created while they are affiliated with TTUS.

14 Texas Tech University System (TTUS) Intellectual Property Policy As a public institution, TTUS is entrusted with the responsibility to facilitate application of scientific, technical, artistic, and intellectual endeavors of its faculty and staff for public use and to provide for an equitable disposition of interests among the authors and inventors, TTUS, and, where applicable, the sponsoring or contracting funding source.

21 Distribution of Income from Copyrightable Works In the event of multiple authors, the authors will agree among themselves as to the distribution of the income accruing to the authors; distribution of the authors' share shall be made only upon receipt of a signed agreement between the authors.
