The intent of this schedule is that small discoveries will primarily aid Inventors and Creators and their research efforts, while large inventions will aid the school proportionally more.

*Split between Department and Center (for total share of 20%) and will be determined and specified in each new licensing agreement based on the relative support provided to enable the intellectual property.
