Guidelines for Research and Transfer

Dealing with intellectual property (IP), such as publications and patents, is not always an easy task in the broad field of tension between duty of confidentiality and duty of publication. Esslingen University of Applied Sciences has drawn up a strategy for this.

IP strategy of Esslingen University of Applied Sciences

Esslingen University of Applied Sciences is committed to the principle whereby unrestricted access to research findings is granted for the benefit of science and society around the world. It is thus part of the Open Access movement which transcends national borders and disciplines. It supports the opportunity to publish research findings as Open Access publications and promotes the expansion of Open Access with a suitable infrastructure, procedures and contact persons. The university library is the central point of contact for questions relating to Open Access.
