Abstract: The R&D projects and S&T expenditures would be treated as the resources base for higher education engaged in S&T activities and technology transfer. This study taking unexplored data of 22 “985 Project” universities from the Ministry of Education. We establish empirical model to measuring the impact of R&D inputs of comprehensive indices, R&D projects by type of activities, S&T expenditures by source of funds, patent activities on the number and revenues of technology transfer contracts (TTC and RTC). The research revel that (1) the same indices of R&D inputs has more significant impact on TTC than RTT;(2) S&T expenditure from both government and enterprises have not yet caused positive significant influence on both TTC and RTC;(3) the rapid growth of the number of patent application and granted patent has positive significant influence on TTC, while the positive significant on RTT is not significant. The results provide valuable policy information for improving the technology transfer from the perspective of the optimal allocation of research resources.
