Abstract: The increasing role that universities are playing in supporting national technological infrastructure and the increasing attention that governments are paying towards fiscal responsibility combine to underscore the importance for universities of demonstrating to their stakeholders the impacts of their R&D activities. This paper sets forth guidelines for assessing the economic impacts of university R&D and identifies what may become the roles and responsibilities of technology transfer officers in the assessment process.
