Whose patent power of attorney did the school apply for?

The patent right belongs to any applicant. If the school is the applicant and the students are just inventors, the patent certificate belongs to the school. If the student himself is the applicant, the certificate belongs to the student.

After the application is approved, Article 6 of the Patent Law stipulates that an invention-creation that has completed the task of the entity or mainly made use of the material and technical conditions of the entity is a service invention, and the right to apply for a patent belongs to the entity, and the inventor or designer is the patentee. In other words, the applicant is the person who has been granted the patent right. The inventor of a non-service invention-creation may be the applicant, and after the application is approved, the entity shall be the patentee.
