This research aims to study the results of the cooperation between UFCG and state and private companies in the area of Computer Science, through the evaluation of signed contracts and agreements. The study seeks to identify the evolution of partnerships established in terms of contract specificities, resource evolution, as well as teachers' views on the effectiveness of contracts. The cooperation between university-business can thus be understood as a process of exchange involving transfer, sharing and / or transformation of knowledge, through the development of products and the provision of services. The process of cooperation between university and company promotes the relationship of several agents, aiming to share knowledge and, consequently, to develop necessary relations within the reach of the previously established motivations. This dissertation characterizes itself in the objectives established as an exploratory and descriptive research. We adopted as methodological procedure the case study, using quantitative and qualitative methods that involve both methods of documentary appreciation and the application of a questionnaire as a means for data collection. The analysis of these procedures showed that the cooperation between the university and the companies mediated by the foundations has benefited a reduced number of courses with a great variation of time to finalize the researches and evidenced the importance of fiscal incentives to stimulate the approximation between universities and the productive sector. The cooperation occurs primarily with private companies which have a large fluctuation in the participation of members of the academic community and the number of intermediations signed per year. Teachers have pointed out that academic projects in cooperation with firms do not only provide additional resources, but also a number of beneficial consequences that favor both the academic community and business. With this, it is concluded that the university as one of the participants of the subsystems of the national innovation system can assist in economic performance.
