Course description

Do you want to learn about intellectual property rights but don't know where to start? Do you feel lost among the thousands or even millions of information resources available on the Internet?

Don't worry, you are not alone. The University of Cologne has created a video collection to provide you with effortless access to relevant information around intellectual property, knowledge and technology transfer.

In the offer you will find several short, but at the same time comprehensive videos (mostly in English, some in German) and webpages that will help you to get a better overview on intellectual property rights protection.

The videos are separated into topic subgroups, so you can easily find your topic of interest and can screen them at your own pace.

Further information

The training materials provided are open education resources (OER), meaning they can be accessed online by anyone at any time.
