NOTE: Agreement turnaround time at most major universities is from 2-4 weeks. The University of Miami Office of Technology Transfer (“OTT”) will endeavor to complete agreements in the most expedient manner possible. Often, our office is waiting for a reply and/or signature from the Recipient Organization.

Additionally, please understand that our office receives multiple requests a day and they are addressed in the order they are received.


For inbound materials:

All inbound materials must go through the Office of Research Administration (ORA). ORA will request that you fill out a survey/questionnaire to start the process.
