When college students apply for a patent, the patentee must write it as a school. Is this reasonable?

Whether it is reasonable or not depends on whether your patent content is the task delivered by the school or the use of school resources (such as equipment used, funds spent, materials, etc.). ).

In addition, Article 13 of the Regulations on the Protection and Management of Intellectual Property Rights in Colleges and Universities issued by the Ministry of Education stipulates that:

Article 13. Unless otherwise agreed, inventions, creations and other technological achievements made by students and researchers who study, pursue advanced studies or conduct cooperative project research in institutions of higher learning, participate in research projects undertaken by tutors or undertake tasks assigned by institutions of higher learning shall be owned or held by institutions of higher learning.

Generally, schools have no special regulations on students' intellectual property ownership, and as students, it is hard to think of signing a contract with the school to stipulate this matter.

If you have participated in this R&D work or made some contributions to this patent, or your own labor, you can be an inventor yourself. Inventors mainly enjoy the right of signature, but do not enjoy the ownership of patent rights.

As far as the cases of some universities and other scientific research units that we represent at present are concerned, the patentee is usually a school or unit, and individuals are prohibited from being inventors. For professional title evaluation or promotion, as long as the inventor signs, he can also apply. Don't think that just hanging a name has no real effect. Actually, it is not. If the project you are involved in is still nominated, or the school has a scholarship policy, or even a graduate study, as long as one inventor is enough.
