Cilji in kompetence:
Objectives and competences:

Vpeljati študente v osnove:
- patentne zakonodaje v Sloveniji in tujini,
posebej v EU in ZDA,
- načinov pregleda relevantnih patentov iz
mednarodnih baz podatkov,
- prepoznavanja elementov patentabilnosti
znanstvenih izsledkov,
- pisanja patentnih prijav,
- načinov za pripravo patentne prijave od
osnovne zamisli do pridobitve patenta,
- seznanijo se tudi z zaščito patentnih pravic po
posameznih državah.

Kompetence:
- presoditi patentabilnost rezultatov
znanstvenega dela,
- izbrati rezultate znanstvenega dela, ki se
vključijo v patentno prijavo,
- napovedati patentabilnost znanstvenih
izsledkov,
- razlikovati med splošno dostopnimi
znanstvenimi deli in rezultati, ki jih je moč
tržiti,
- sestaviti kompletno patentno prijavo in jo
poslati na patentni urad.

To introduce students to the basics of:
- patent law in Slovenia and abroad, in particular
EU countries and USA,
- searching for relevant patents using
international databases,
- recognition of patentable elements in their
scientific achievements,
- writing patent applications,
- methods for writing patent applications from
original idea to submission,
- protection of intellectual rights in relevant
countries.

Competences:
- judging of scientific results patentability,
- selecting the scientific results to be included in a patent application,
- forecasting patentability of specific scientific
discoveries,
- distinguishing between public accessible
scientific results and those suitable for
protection by a patent application,
- writing a complete patent application and
submission to a patent office.

Predvideni študijski rezultati:
Intendeded learning outcomes:

Študent se nauči pripraviti celovito patentno
prijavo, ki je primerna za vložitev na patentni urad:
- sestavi kompletno besedilo patentne prijave,
- izdela slike po standardu, ki velja za patentne
prijave,
- sestavi pregled stanja po standardih, ki veljajo za patentne prijave,
- sestavi neodvisne in odvisne patentne zahtevke,
- pravilno izpolni formularje za oddajo patentne prijave,
- vloži patentno prijavo.

A student learns how to prepare a patent
application and actually prepares an application
suitable for submission to a patent office:
- assemble complete text of the patent
application,
- prepares figures according to the patent standards,
- assemble the state-of-the art according to the patent standards,
- prepares independent and dependent patent claims,
- correctly fills the forms necessary for submission to a patent office
- filles the patent application.

Metode poučevanja in učenja:
Learning and teaching methods:

Poučevanje je interaktivno. Profesor s predavanji razloži, zakaj in kako pripraviti ustrezno patentno prijavo. Vsak študent poroča o svojih inovativnih rezultatih, razred pa razvije ustrezne patentne zahtevke in razpravlja o vsebini prijave. Posamezni študent pripravi osnutek patentne prijave, ki se izpili do stopnje, ko je primerna za vložitev na patentni urad. Vsebina določene patentne prijave se šteje za skrivnost, profesor in ostali študentje pa niso soavtorji vložene prijave.

Teaching is interactive. The professor first gives lectures on why and how to prepare a patent application. Each student reports about his/her innovative results and the class develops appropriate claims and discuss the content of the application. The draft application is prepared by an individual student and the application is fine-tuned until suitable for submission. The subject of a particular patent application will remain secret and neither the professor nor other students are co-authors.
