Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs)
A material transfer agreement (MTA) must be in place before faculty and staff send or receive any physical material for research purposes. The Office of Research Commercialization and Development (ORCD) is the main point of contact for all material transfer agreements between Charlotte employees and outside parties. Faculty and staff are not permitted to sign material transfer agreements. Please contact our office at 704-687-8012 or by email at invent@charlotte.edu to facilitate the MTA process.
