Koulutus (online): Patenttitietokantojen hyödyntäminen tutkimuksessa 19.-20.11.
by Maarit Jokela 27 Oct '25

27 Oct '25

Hei, This message concerns the patent database course that is kept in Finnish. The same course will be arranged in English in May 6-7, 2026. Tiesitkö, että jopa 80 % kaikista teknisistä tiedoista löytyy vain patenttijulkaisuista? Jos luet vain tieteellisiä artikkeleita, et saa kokonaiskuvaa nykyisestä tekniikan tasosta. Patentit eivät ole tärkeitä vain keksintöjen yhteydessä. Hyödynnä niiden tietoja myös suunnitellessasi uutta tutkimusprojektia. Tee vaikutus rahoittajiin! Opi käyttämään patenttitietokantoja ja löytämään tärkeimmät tiedot patenttijulkaisusta. Kurssi sisältää luentoja, mutta pääpaino on käytännön harjoituksissa. Koulutus pidetään suomeksi ja se on laajuudeltaan 0,5 op. Milloin ja missä? * osa 1/2: 19.11.2025 klo 12.00–16 (online) * osa 2/2: 20.11.2025 klo 9.00–12 (online) Zoom osallistumislinkki<https://oulu.zoom.us/j/64609608351> Kenelle? Maisteri- ja jatko-opiskelijat, tutkijat ja kaikki patenttitiedosta kiinnostuneet Ilmoittautuminen: Peppiin (kurssin koodi 920013J), Osku henkilöstökoulutusportaaliin<https://oulunyliopisto.etapahtuma.fi/azuread?return_url=https%3a%2f%2foulun…> ("Opi hyödyntämään patenttitietokantoja") tai sähköpostilla osoitteeseen Maarit.Jokela(a)oulu.fi<mailto:Maarit.Jokela@oulu.fi> 17.11. mennessä Kurssiohjelma<https://patio.oulu.fi/sites/default/files/2025-09/Patenttitietokantakurssin…> Tervetuloa oppimaan lisää patenteista! t.
