Portfolio overview
Beijing University Of Civil Engineering And Architecture has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Beijing University Of Civil Engineering And Architecture at rank #18,442 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 28 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02W (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO WASTEWATER TREATMENT OR WASTE MANAGEMENT). As a Foreign Corporation, Beijing University Of Civil Engineering And Architecture is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 40.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 11 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +175% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Beijing University Of Civil Engineering And Architecture's 8.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 28 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Beijing University Of Civil Engineering And Architecture against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
