In Cuba, the relationship of Higher Education institutions with the development of the territory is evident from the growing number of investigations that are undertaken, so that the impact evaluation currently becomes a necessity in terms of measuring the results of the interventions. In this sense, the objective of this research is to evaluate the impact of research in technical sciences careers at the University of Cienfuegos and provide a tool that makes it possible to direct its scientific strategy. To this end, a procedure validated by specialist criteria is applied that guarantees a consensual assessment regarding the relevance, feasibility and applicability of the research carried out in the local context to manage knowledge. Methods and tools such as: document analysis, observation, interviews and surveys are used. The results obtained are related to the contribution of the investigations to the local development of the territories, which is evidenced in its articulation with the current reality of the problems of the local environment; the knowledge and innovation of the implementation of its results and the impact of research management in each territory.
