Abstract

The evaluation of collaborated research between university and industry has created the greatest interest amongst the collaborational researchers as it can determine the feasibility and value of the collaboration. Collaborated research of university and industry can enhance the ability of scientist to make significant advances in their fields. A successful Collaboration of university and industry is not dependent on any single parameter but instead on the confluence of multiple parameters from the growth of basic research to commercialisation. This paper intends to illustrate the key evaluation metrics for evaluating the university-industry technological linkage. The proposed evaluation metrics is appropriate for almost all types of collaborations, especially research collaborations between university and industry. By adopting this metrics any university or industry can easily cross the threshold in the grown-up research collaborational community.
