Intellectual Property Service

The Intellectual Property （IP） Service Center of Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) is one of the first 23 university-leveled National IP Service Centers jointly approved by the Office of the China National IP Administration and the General Office of the Ministry of Education. It is also one of the 33 institutions nationwide qualified for National Defense Patent Agency, providing full-process services for the creation, application, protection, and management of intellectual property both on and off campus. In 2021, it was approved as the Patent Navigation Service Base for New Materials and New-Generation Information Technology Industries in Heilongjiang Province.

List of Services:

Patent Search and Analysis:

For on-campus research teams, we conduct multi-layered patent search and analysis based on patents and scientific/technological literature, covering macro and micro perspectives, research direction planning, technology monitoring, and dynamic tracking.

Patent Agency Services:

We provide comprehensive patent agency services for faculty and students, covering both general patent applications and national defense patent filings. Specifically, we offer free general patent submission services exclusively for our university's faculty and students. A standardized workflow has been established for all stages of the process, including business reception, fee payment, patent drafting, subsequent responses, and official fee submissions.

Intellectual Property (IP) Publicity and Education:

We organize and conduct featured events such as World Intellectual Property Week and Patent Service Month to enhance IP protection awareness among faculty and students. Additionally, we have established a remote education platform for intellectual property—the Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) Substation—offering over 20 courses with an average annual enrollment exceeding 3,000 learners.
