Re: A school owns patents?
you need to wake up.
Even at British universities, students on Msc & PHD are 'informed' that their work at the university belongs to the university and any ideas they may have during their time at the uni. also belong to the uni.
I'm afraid that the idea of Uni.'s being places of learning died out a long time ago, they are now just massive businesses selling off qualifications for a quick buck, even many of the courses are not run by qualified professionals, but rather students using teaching material ripped from books.
Go do an Msc at a reputable Uni. and see for yourself.
