Abstract
The study covers the impact of the research evaluation conducted in Bulgaria. Its assessment is based on the analysis of applicable indicators regarding research publications, preparation of doctoral students, project activity - national and international, participation in networks, impact of the quality of research on funding, patents, and innovative environment. Main regulative papers and assessment bodies are considered. Most of the indicators are extracted and analyzed on the basis of statistics, benchmarking and correlative methodology. The figures and the trends are from reliable sources. The conclusions are that despite the different influence on certain parameters of the scientific system, the impact of research is positive and mostly useful in the development and improvement of the overall capacity of the Bulgarian Research System.
