One of the most important functions of universities is to produce knowledge by making scientific projects and to ensure the transfer of the knowledge produced to different sectors. Universities in developed countries have a very high level of social contribution in this area. Within the scope of this study, the project numbers and budgets of the state universities in Turkey, supported by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey and the General Directorate of Science and Technology of the Ministry of Science, Industry and technology were evaluated. In short, these are described as "TUBITAK project" and "San-TEZ project", respectively. The numbers and budgets of these projects in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 were examined on the basis of University categories. The study has shown that averagely forty percent of the accredited projects produced by universities in Turkey belongs to nine universities (Istanbul, Istanbul Teknik, Ankara, Ege, Karadeniz Teknik, Orta Dogu Teknik, Ataturk, Hacettepe and Bogazici), which are in the A-category according to the year of establishment. This proportion increases further in favor of A-Category universities, when considered the efficiency of projects.
