Material Transfer Agreement

The sharing of materials is widespread throughout the academic community and is vital for the progress of research.


A Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) is required when material (including biological materials, compounds, equipment, prototypes, data) for use in research projects is to be transferred into or out of the University on a non-commercial basis, i.e. the material is not being bought or sold.

The MTA template may be shared with third parties. After filling out the yellow highlighted fields, return the signed copy to our office. In case one wishes to amend the template, please get in touch. We will make sure to obtain Rector's signature on behalf of the University.
