Abstract：In the modern society,academic research has become a public policy.What kind of government funding system and operation mechanism on the university research should be established is concerned with the effective utilization and rational distribution of scientific resources,and also is where the interests of government,supporting institutions and project undertaker lie.Through the analysis on the British and American experience,this paper finds that besides a clear technology planning system at macro level designed by the government,it is of vital importance to set up a research cost compensation mechanism at micro level. A certain amount of financing compensation may play a leverage role for universities.This leverage effect,used well,is expected to effectively adjust the interests of the three parties,i.e.,the government,the university and the project team,thus promoting both the group team’s enthusiasm and the healthy development of the research at the university level.
