== <u~~>Campus I&E Efforts~~~~ ==~~~~Faculty Proposal for Developing Culture of Innovation on Campus~~:~~ In the Fall of 2015 there was an assembly of Deans of the individual schools of study to discuss methods of promoting innovation on campus. The main idea conveyed in the meeting was that the movement had to be student led. Unfortunately this movement proposal fell to the wayside under the red tape of running a university. Fortunately, The Brain Trust was recently made aware of the proceedings of this meeting and is currently following up with the Vice Chancellor of IUPUI in an effort to allocate funds and the people needed to make this proposal a reality.~~~~Think It Make It Lab~~: ~~ The Herron School of Art and Design has recently spent $1.3 million to design a makerspace known as the Think It Make It Lab. This area houses computers equipped with design software, 3D printers, laser engravers and CNC machinery. Although this space is currently mainly reserved for Art and Design as well as Informatics students; the end goal is to make it available to the general IUPUI student population.~~~~JagStart - IUPUI Student Pitch Competition~~: ~~ JagStart is a annual competition where students can pitch their ideas for solving campus, local, national and even world issues. This competition is in elevator pitch format and can be taken on by an individual or a team. It is the hope that this gets students in touch with their more innovative and passionate side. It is a good opportunity to get a small feel of what pitching an idea to an audience is like.~~~~IUFresh Implementation~~: ~~<br/~~span~~>~~~~== A University Innovation Fellowship run program for incoming IUPUI freshman studentsduring Summer Bridge, a two-week transition program at the end of the summer.~~ === The IDEA (Innovation, Design, Entrepreneurship, Action) Project === In the spring of 2018, students from current and past UIF leadership circles partnered with the Herron School of Art + Design's faculty and students in the MFA, Visual Communication Design program to perform design research around the challenge: How might we create a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship on campus? This project, which has the support of campus administration, seeks to understand the problem space and propose solutions.

= University Technology Transfer Functions =

The Indiana University Research and Technology Corporation (IURTC) is an off campus organization that serves as IUPUI's technology transfer office. Whether a student's goal is to commercialize his or her product, secure rights on intellectual property, or to patent an invention, the IURTC helps them accomplish their goals.Commercialization: The technology commercialization process can be started with IURTC by completing an Invention Disclosure Form that is reviewed and copied to the student's department chair, the dean of their school or college, and the chancellor or provost at their campus.Startups: The IURTC has helped multiple undergraduate and graduate student run startups get their feet off the ground including:[http://www.assemblybio.com/ Assembly]: A startup biopharmaceutical company researching treatment for hepatitis B and CDADAnagin: Another start up developing an over the counter medication for PTSDSoftware Licensing and Intellectual Property Rights: The IURTC also assists in helping students secure intellectual property rights for ideas that they develop but are unsure of what steps to take next as well as licensing software to companies.Website Link: [http://iurtc.iu.edu/index.shtml http://iurtc.iu.edu/index.shtml]
