Research Home Research Mission Rowan University is dedicated to conducting nationally and internationally significant research that is designed to solve real world problems. Through their research projects, Rowan faculty integrate research and scholarship with teaching to enhance learning opportunities within the academic community. Welcome and overview... Research Integrity and Compliance An awareness of all the current guidelines and practices of the responsible conduct of research is critical to research activities at Rowan University. So, Rowan's research compliance programs provide support and education for faculty members, students, and staff in regulatory requirements for scientific research. The Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) offers free online training and certification for administrators, faculty, and students in the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) in all academic fields. Please go to http://citiprogram.org for more information and to register for these courses. Intellectual Property The Research Office is your source of information for policies, procedures, and assistance with the management of intellectual property, technology transfer, inventions, licensing, patenting, and technology commercialization. IP/Tech Transfer Office of Sponsored Programs The mission of the Office of Sponsored Programs is to provide the Rowan University faculty with relevant information and guidance for the submission of quality proposals to federal, state, and industrial sponsors, and to provide effective stewardship of awarded funds. Office of Sponsored Programs Faculty Research Activities Rowan faculty members are engaged in a variety of research activities across campus.

New Invention Disclosure Form Rowan University’s intellectual property policy states that “University employees are required to file an invention disclosure form when intellectual property has been developed and protection may be warranted." The Research Office has developed a simplified invention disclosure form (download here) for use by all faculty. This form supersedes the previous disclosure form. Please submit completed form to the Associate Provost for Research, Bole Hall Annex, either as hard copy or electronically with signatures.
