U of U Licensing Program Overview

The University licensing program is designed to provide a simple, step by step procedure enabling the purchase of licensed goods.†  This program allows any individual or department to legally purchase licensed goods that bear the University of Utah’s marks.

Follow these 8 easy steps to participate in the Licensing Program:

  1. Generate Concept (product design and how it is used)
  2. Contact the Licensing Director to discuss concept and receive list of approved vendors (801 581-8298 or brett.eden@aux.utah.edu).
  3. Licensing Administrator determines if royalties apply*
  4. Individual/Department requests bids from licensed vendors
  5. Individual/Department chooses vendor
  6. Vendors submit design to The Collegiate Licensing Company
  7. Licensing Director approves artwork
  8. Vendor produces product and ships to individual/department

†For University of Utah departments making purchases of $5,000 or more, you must contact the Purchasing Department prior to completing this process at 801 581-7241.

*If royalties do not apply, the individual/department will receive a letter from the Licensing Director stating that royalties are waived.  The letter should be submitted to vendors during the bid process.
