Like if your Accounting professor tells you debit means left-hand and credit mean right-hand side of the ledger, should you refrain from ever applying that intellectual property knowledge in the workplace?

    Lectures themselves are intellectual property. Information contained in them is not. Your papers written for class are your intellectual property. But that doesn’t mean no one else can ever use 1+1=2 if you wrote that down.

  2. AlexAlex says:

    Ask him or her if he or she minds your using a tape recorder in class. If the professor says that you can use one, things are fair game as far as recording them.

    What they teach in class isn’t really intellectual property. They are teaching you things to help in the workplace.

  3. ownpool says:

    The lecture itself is the professor’s intellectual property. That means that the student cannot record or transcribe the lecture without the professor’s permission. It does not mean that the student cannot use the information in a practical way.

    That’s taking intellectual property a bit far… It would be absurd to think that you can’t apply anything you learned in college because you’d be "stealing" it from your professors!

    It would be different if you passed off his original research as your own (and sometimes professors do teach from their own research and present their original ideas in class), or if you videotaped his lecture and put it on the internet without his permission. Those would violate intellectual property. But what you’re talking about sounds like the kind of general knowledge or wisdom that is passed down from one teacher to the next, not something that "belongs" only to your professor.

    You should definitely apply what you learn in class to your workplace! That’s part of why your workplace wants to hire people with college degrees. If it’s something that you think comes from your professor’s original research, look it up to see if he has written an article on it and give him credit for it when you share that information, otherwise don’t worry about it.
