A new law gives ownership of patents—documents providing exclusive right to make and sell an invention—to universities, not the government, when those patents result from government-sponsored university research. Administrators at Logos University plan to sell any patents they acquire to corporations in order to fund programs to improve undergraduate teaching.
Which of the following, if true, would cast the most doubt on the viability of the college administrators' plan described above?
Profit-making corporations interested in developing products based on patents held by universities are likely to try to serve as exclusive sponsors of ongoing university research projects.
Corporate sponsors of research in university facilities are entitled to tax credits under new federal tax-code guidelines.
Research scientists at Logos University have few or no teaching responsibilities and participate little if at all in the undergraduate programs in their field.
Government-sponsored research conducted at Logos University for the most part duplicates research already completed by several profitmaking corporations.
Logos University is unlikely to attract corporate sponsorship of its scientific research.
情景:对于政府赞助的大学研究项目,出台了新法律,其发明创造的专利权归属于大学,而非政府。Logos大学的管理层决定把所有专利权都卖给企业,这样做的目的是把赚的钱用来改善本科教育。
推理:由于问题问的是方案,所以是方案推理。
本题的推理结构为:
目标:把赚的钱用来改善本科教育
方案:Logos大学的管理层决定把所有专利权都卖给企业
选题方式:方案推理有三个评估方向,简而言之,即,答案选项一定和方案的内容相关。
选项分析:
A选项:对大学专利权相关产品感兴趣的公司有可能成为该大学研究的长期赞助人。本选项和方案无关。
B选项:在新的税法下,赞助大学研究设备的公司有资格进行税款抵免。本选项和方案无关。
C选项: Logos大学的研究人员没有教本科的义务。本选项和方案无关。
D选项:Correct. 政府赞助的Logos大学的研究项目基本上复制了已经被商业机构完成的项目。若本选项成立,则Logos大学不可能卖出这些专利,因为这些专利已经是已有的了。属于CQ1:方案的可行性问题。
E选项:Logos大学的研究项目很难吸引赞助企业。这是第一步,推理文段的方案考虑的是吸引了赞助企业之后的事情。
注意本题目标是卖出专利后有钱进行教学
exclusive sponsors独家赞助
A:企业喜欢成为大学科研项目的独家赞助,没有说卖不卖的出去
D:LU这些项目已经被很多企业完成了
E:LU不可能吸引企业赞助,赞助不等于卖
