The study is of basic type, descriptive level, mixed approach, analytical and deductive-inductive methods, using the concurrent triangulation design.

The data was processed with the SPSS V. 25 statistical program, and the hypotheses were verified with the Bernouli Binomial test, using the Minitab V. 18 program. The results show that the perception of university social responsibility that teachers and authorities have is positive. in its dimensions: Organizational management, training and social participation, while in the research dimension it is negative. The need to strengthen the functioning of public universities through the institutionalization of a social responsibility policy is evident
