ULA trademark
The Project ULA Trademark aims to work as an “umbrella” under which all the products and services generated in the Universidad de Los Andes are protected (identified and located).
Control and Prevention of Plagiarism
The word “plagium”, “plagiator” derives from the greek “plagios” that means fraud and it is applied to those who commit intellectual robbery or infringement through illegal mechanisms. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines plagiarism as “the act of using another person's words or ideas without giving credit to that person“.
UGI ULA aims to make an institutional proposal of prevention and control of plagiarism that affects the academic and research part of the Universidad de Los Andes.
The Unit has been checking technologic tools that may support students, teachers, tutors, dissertation students, judges and researchers in general, for the prevention and control of plagiarism. The following browsers allow identifying the originality of products by the comparison of documents or texts found in the web:
- Plagium
- DOC Cop
- Dupli Checker
- Viper
- CopyCatch Gold
- Essay Verification Engine
- Glatt
- IntegriGuard
- Moss
- Plagiserv
- Yap
- Wordcheck
- Turnitin
- Plagiarism Combat
As an extra tool, we share with researchers one of the ways to begin an investigation through the browsers that lead to the antecedents:
We also offer the researchers a tool for the analysis of patentability of the products obtained from a research through the following links:
- European Patent Office (EPO)
- Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (SPTO)
- World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)
- United States Patent and Trademark Office (UPSTO)

Another of the UGI ULA projects currently in process is the Intangible Patrimony Inventory of the Universidad de Los Andes, which aims to keep a record of the intangible patrimony generated in the university. This is an innovative project never developed in the university before.
