Copyright Ownership Policy

This policy constitutes an understanding that is binding on DIU, its academic and non-academic personnel, students, and others as a condition of their participating in DIU research programs or their use of DIU resources. DIU may require formal copyright agreements to implement the Policy as appropriate, but the absence of such executed agreements shall not invalidate the applicability of this Policy, except where required by law.
